Install the bpf.h header to $(prefix)/include/bpf/ directory.
This is necessary to build standalone applications using libbpf,
without the need to clone the kernel sources and point to them.

I'm not 100% sure if it's OK to export the header file and which
directory it should end up in (bpf/? libbpf/?).
Given the Makefile is heavily derived from tools/lib/traceevent/,
we should probably have a similar install_headers target instead,
in order to keep semantics similar. /include/bpf/ should be good.
