tools lib bpf: Add BPF program pinning APIs
Add new APIs to pin a BPF program (or specific instances) to the filesystem. The user can specify the path full path within a BPF filesystem to pin the program. bpf_program__pin_instance(prog, path, n) will pin the nth instance of 'prog' to the specified path. bpf_program__pin(prog, path) will create the directory 'path' (if it does not exist) and pin each instance within that directory. For instance, path/0, path/1, path/2. Committer notes: - Add missing headers for mkdir() - Check strdup() for failure - Check snprintf >= size, not >, as == also means truncated, see 'man snprintf', return value. - Conditionally define BPF_FS_MAGIC, as it isn't in magic.h in older systems and we're not yet having a tools/include/uapi/linux/magic.h copy. - Do not include linux/magic.h, not present in older distros.
