Re: [PATCH bpf-next 5/6] selftests/bpf: replace test_progs and test_maps w/ general rule

Define test runner generation meta-rule that codifies dependencies
between test runner, its tests, and its dependent BPF programs. Use that
for defining test_progs and test_maps test-runners. Also additionally define
3 flavors of test_progs:
- alu32, which builds BPF programs with 32-bit registers codegen;
- bpf_gcc, which build BPF programs using GCC, if it supports BPF target;
- native, which uses a mix of native Clang target and BPF target for LLC.

Great improvement, but it's taking it too far.

native clang + llc is useful for old school tracing only (before CO-RE).
