selftests/bpf: Add test relying only on CO-RE and no recent kernel features
Add a test that relies on CO-RE, but doesn't expect any of the recent features, not available on old kernels. This is useful for Travis CI tests running against very old kernels (e.g., libbpf has 4.9 kernel testing now), to verify that CO-RE still works, even if kernel itself doesn't support BTF yet, as long as there is .BTF embedded into vmlinux image by pahole. Given most of CO-RE doesn't require any kernel awareness of BTF, it is a useful test to validate that libbpf's BTF sanitization is working well even with ancient kernels.
