This commit moves BTF ID lookup into the newly added registration
helper, in a way that the bbr, cubic, and dctcp implementation set up
their sets in the bpf_tcp_ca kfunc_btf_set list, while the ones not
dependent on modules are looked up from the wrapper function.

This lifts the restriction for them to be compiled as built in objects,
and can be loaded as modules if required. Also modify link-vmlinux.sh to
resolve_btfids in TCP congestion control modules if the config option is
set, using the base BTF support added in the previous commit.

See following commits for background on use of:

 CONFIG_X86 ifdef:
 569c484f9995 (bpf: Limit static tcp-cc functions in the .BTF_ids list to x86)

 CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE ifdef:
 7aae231ac93b (bpf: tcp: Limit calling some tcp cc functions to CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE)
