bpf: Add bpf_btf_find_by_name_kind() helper.

Add new helper:
long bpf_btf_find_by_name_kind(char *name, int name_sz, u32 kind, int flags)
Description
	Find BTF type with given name and kind in vmlinux BTF or in module's BTFs.
Return
	Returns btf_id and btf_obj_fd in lower and upper 32 bits.

It will be used by loader program to find btf_id to attach the program to
and to find btf_ids of ksyms.
