This adds the CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF kernel compile option to output of the bpftool feature command. This is relevant for developers that want to use libbpf to account for data structure definition differences between kernels.

Nit: The comment is slightly misleading, you can use BTF to list program C instructions or map structures without this option for example. Maybe something like this? /* Kernel BTF debug information available */ Thanks for the patch! Quentin
