Fixes #782. Solution taken verbatim from @jepio here:

https://github.com/iovisor/bcc/issues/782#issuecomment-259075010

I ran into the same issue attempting to compile from source on
a fresh Ubuntu 16.10/Yakkety host:

Linking C executable bcc-lua
/usr/bin/ld: libluajit-5.1.a(ljamalg.o): relocation R_X86_64_32S
    against `.rodata' can not be used when making a shared object;
    recompile with -fPIC
/usr/bin/ld: final link failed: Nonrepresentable section on output

Build succeeded after patch was applied.

o This is caused by my ignorant error in previous usdt change.
  Obviously, I need to store into pointer address in order to
  propagate value back to caller.
o Thanks Tetsuo Handa pointing this out.

  o The sample application covers different aspects
    of usdt rewriter code generation:
    - const
    - *(ctx + offset)
    - use bpf_probe_read to get trace data
    - the switch in ctx->ip if the same probe
      is triggered in multiple .text locations.
  o folly (https://github.com/facebook/folly/) tracing
    header files are pulled into python test directory and
    used to produce USDT probes.

Force udst ctx->#reg load to be volatile

Add linux/sched.h to list of libbpf.c includes

This should hopefully fix compile errors on some ubuntu systems.

Also, reorders the includes according to clang-format

Break the c++ dependency in libbpf.c, and turn it into a separate lib
from cmake point of view.

This moves ProcMountNS[Guard] classes to a separate header file and
implementation. The goal will be to use these more directly in libbpf.c
without creating a circular dependency.
Removed the friend class statements and exposed a few public getters instead.
Slightly changed the implementation in ProcMountNS constructor to avoid
a few error cases and the use of snprintf.

This is related to issue #1133. Compiler sometimes
generates code patterns likes:
     r1 = ctx + 96
     goto next
   here:
     r1 = ctx + 48
   next:
     r3 = load (r1 + 0)
Verifier will fail for such cases as r1 is marked
as "unknown" at the time of load.

The previous workaround is to add volatile attribute
to the store like
   *(volatile u64 *)&dest = ctx->bx
The hope is to force ctx related load in-place since
its value is needed for store.

Unfortunately, this does not always work and compiler
still has freedom to merge different ctx loads at the
same time honoring the volatile &dest. In USDT generated
code, different branches of &dest are the same.

This patch directly make ctx->bx itself as a volatile load:
  *(volatile u64 *)&ctx->bx
This seems working as compiler stops playing around
the address pointing to a volatile data.

Improve perf event clean up

Add bpf_close_perf_event_fd helper that first disables, then closes a
perf event fd. Use it in Python and C++ API for detach perf event

Support symbol option in C++ API stack table

attach_uprobe() and attach_uretprobe() expect the type of pid argument
is "int" instead of "str". Fix it by specifying the type of the "-p"/"--pid"
option as "int", and updating the format string of args.pid accordingly.

Add support for generic XDP mode

Reused some of the code and command-line format from kernel XDP samples.

Throughput difference is expected since generic XDP takes more
instructions per packet than optimized XDP.
