tools/bpftool: Add support for in-kernel and named BTF in `btf show`
Display vmlinux BTF name and kernel module names when listing available BTFs on the system. In human-readable output mode, module BTFs are reported with "name [module-name]", while vmlinux BTF will be reported as "name [vmlinux]". Square brackets are added by bpftool and follow kernel convention when displaying modules in human-readable text outputs.
