Simplify gen_btf logic to make it work with llvm-objcopy and llvm-objdump.
The existing 'file format' and 'architecture' parsing logic is brittle
and does not work with llvm-objcopy/llvm-objdump.
.BTF in .tmp_vmlinux.btf is non-SHF_ALLOC. Add the SHF_ALLOC flag and
rename .BTF to BTF so that C code can reference the section via linker
synthesized __start_BTF and __stop_BTF. This fixes a small problem that
previous .BTF had the SHF_WRITE flag. Additionally, `objcopy -I binary`
synthesized symbols _binary__btf_vmlinux_bin_start and
_binary__btf_vmlinux_bin_start (not used elsewhere) are replaced with
more common __start_BTF and __stop_BTF.
Add 2>/dev/null because GNU objcopy (but not llvm-objcopy) warns
"empty loadable segment detected at vaddr=0xffffffff81000000, is this intentional?"
We use a dd command to change the e_type field in the ELF header from
ET_EXEC to ET_REL so that lld will accept .btf.vmlinux.bin.o. Accepting
ET_EXEC as an input file is an extremely rare GNU ld feature that lld
does not intend to support, because this is error-prone.
