Add a bulk copying api, btf__add_btf(), that speeds up and simplifies appending entire contents of one BTF object to another one, taking care of copying BTF type data, adjusting resulting BTF type IDs according to their new locations in the destination BTF object, as well as copying and deduplicating all the referenced strings and updating all the string offsets in new BTF types as appropriate. This API is intended to be used from tools that are generating and otherwise manipulating BTFs generically, such as pahole. In pahole's case, this API is useful for speeding up parallelized BTF encoding, as it allows pahole to offload all the intricacies of BTF type copying to libbpf and handle the parallelization aspects of the process.
