libbpf: Fail compilation if target arch is missing
bpf2go is the Go equivalent of libbpf skeleton. The convention is that the compiled BPF is checked into the repository to facilitate distributing BPF as part of Go packages. To make this portable, bpf2go by default generates both bpfel and bpfeb variants of the C. Using bpf_tracing.h is inherently non-portable since the fields of struct pt_regs differ between platforms, so CO-RE can't help us here. The only way of working around this is to compile for each target platform independently. bpf2go can't do this by default since there are too many platforms. Define the various PT_... macros when no target can be determined and turn them into compilation failures. This works because bpf2go always compiles for bpf targets, so the compiler fallback doesn't kick in. Conditionally define __BPF_MISSING_TARGET so that we can inject a more appropriate error message at build time. The user can then choose which platform to target explicitly.
