btf: add BTF types deduplication algorithm
This patch implements BTF types deduplication algorithm. It allows to greatly compress typical output of pahole's DWARF-to-BTF conversion or LLVM's compilation output by detecting and collapsing identical types emitted in isolation per compilation unit. Algorithm also resolves struct/union forward declarations into concrete BTF types representing referenced struct/union. If undesired, this resolution can be disabled through specifying corresponding options. Algorithm itself and its application to Linux kernel's BTF types is described in details at: https://facebookmicrosites.github.io/bpf/blog/2018/11/14/btf-enhancement.htmlSigned-off-by: NAndrii Nakryiko <andriin@fb.com> Signed-off-by: NDaniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net>
