[PATCH bpf-next 8/9] libbpf: add btf__str_by_offset() as a more generic variant of name_by_offset

From: Andrii Nakryiko <hidden>
Date: 2020-09-23 15:55:03
Also in: bpf
Subsystem: bpf [general] (safe dynamic programs and tools), bpf [library] (libbpf), the rest · Maintainers: Alexei Starovoitov, Daniel Borkmann, Andrii Nakryiko, Eduard Zingerman, Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, Linus Torvalds

BTF strings are used not just for names, they can be arbitrary strings used
for CO-RE relocations, line/func infos, etc. Thus "name_by_offset" terminology
is too specific and might be misleading. Instead, introduce
btf__str_by_offset() API which uses generic string terminology.
