samples/bpf: Change _kern suffix to .bpf with syscall tracing program

Currently old compile rule (CLANG-bpf) doesn't contains VMLINUX_H define
flag which is essential for the bpf program that includes "vmlinux.h".
Also old compile rule doesn't directly specify the compile target as bpf,
instead it uses bunch of extra options with clang followed by long chain
of commands. (e.g. clang | opt | llvm-dis | llc)

In Makefile, there is already new compile rule which is more simple and
neat. And it also has -D__VMLINUX_H__ option. By just changing the _kern
suffix to .bpf will inherit the benefit of the new CLANG-BPF compile
target.

Also, this commit adds dummy gnu/stub.h to the samples/bpf directory.
As commit 1c2dd16add7e ("selftests/bpf: get rid of -D__x86_64__") noted,
compiling with 'clang -target bpf' will raise an error with stubs.h
unless workaround (-D__x86_64) is used. This commit solves this problem
by adding dummy stub.h to make /usr/include/features.h to follow the
expected path as the same way selftests/bpf dealt with.

samples/bpf: Get rid of deprecated libbpf API uses

Replace deprecated APIs with new ones. Also mute source code using
deprecated AF_XDP (xsk.h). Figuring out what to do with all the AF_XDP
stuff is a separate problem that should be solved with its own set of
changes.

samples: bpf: Refactor kprobe tracing programs with libbpf

For the problem of increasing fragmentation of the bpf loader programs,
instead of using bpf_loader.o, which is used in samples/bpf, this
commit refactors the existing kprobe tracing programs with libbbpf
bpf loader.

- For kprobe events pointing to system calls, the SYSCALL() macro in
trace_common.h was used.
- Adding a kprobe event and attaching a bpf program to it was done
through bpf_program_attach().
- Instead of using the existing BPF MAP definition, MAP definition
has been refactored with the new BTF-defined MAP format.

# 7cf245a3 20-Jan-2020 Toke Høiland-Jørgensen <toke@redhat.com>

samples/bpf: Use consistent include paths for libbpf

Fix all files in samples/bpf to include libbpf header files with the bpf/
prefix, to be consistent with external users of the library. Also ensure
that all includes of exported libbpf header files (those that are exported
on 'make install' of the library) use bracketed includes instead of quoted.

To make sure no new files are introduced that doesn't include the bpf/
prefix in its include, remove tools/lib/bpf from the include path entirely,
and use tools/lib instead.

samples: bpf: include bpf/bpf.h instead of local libbpf.h

There are two files in the tree called libbpf.h which is becoming
problematic. Most samples don't actually need the local libbpf.h
they simply include it to get to bpf/bpf.h. Include bpf/bpf.h
directly instead.

samples/bpf: move common-purpose trace functions to selftests

There is no functionality change in this patch. The common-purpose
trace functions, including perf_event polling and ksym lookup,
are moved from trace_output_user.c and bpf_load.c to
selftests/bpf/trace_helpers.c so that these function can
be reused later in selftests.

samples/bpf: Make perf_event_read() static

While testing Joe's conversion of samples/bpf/ to use tools/lib/bpf/ I noticed
some warnings building samples/bpf/ on a Fedora Rawhide container, with
clang/llvm 3.9 I noticed this:

samples/bpf: Make samples more libbpf-centric

Switch all of the sample code to use the function names from
tools/lib/bpf so that they're consistent with that, and to declare their
own log buffers. This allow the next commit to be purely devoted to
getting rid of the duplicate library in samples/bpf.

Committer notes:

Testing it:

On a fedora rawhide container, with clang/llvm 3.9, sharing the host
linux kernel git tree:

# make O=/tmp/build/linux/ headers_install
# make O=/tmp/build/linux -C samples/bpf/

Since I forgot to make it privileged, just tested it outside the
container, using what it generated:
