tools lib bpf: Introduce bpf_program__get_prog_info_linear()
Currently, bpf_prog_info includes 9 arrays. The user has the option to fetch any combination of these arrays. However, this requires a lot of handling. This work becomes more tricky when we need to store bpf_prog_info to a file, because these arrays are allocated independently. This patch introduces 'struct bpf_prog_info_linear', which stores arrays of bpf_prog_info in continuous memory. Helper functions are introduced to unify the work to get different sets of bpf_prog_info. Specifically, bpf_program__get_prog_info_linear() allows the user to select which arrays to fetch, and handles details for the user. Please see the comments right before 'enum bpf_prog_info_array' for more details and examples.
