libbpf: Add explicit padding to bpf_xdp_set_link_opts

Adding such anonymous padding fixes the issue with uninitialized portions of
bpf_xdp_set_link_opts when using LIBBPF_DECLARE_OPTS macro with inline field
initialization:

DECLARE_LIBBPF_OPTS(bpf_xdp_set_link_opts, opts, .old_fd = -1);

When such code is compiled in debug mode, compiler is generating code that
leaves padding bytes uninitialized, which triggers error inside libbpf APIs
that do strict zero initialization checks for OPTS structs.

Adding anonymous padding field fixes the issue.
