samples/bpf: fix bio latency check with tracepoint

Recently, a new tracepoint for the block layer, specifically the
block_io_start/done tracepoints, was introduced in commit 5a80bd075f3b
("block: introduce block_io_start/block_io_done tracepoints").

Previously, the kprobe entry used for this purpose was quite unstable
and inherently broke relevant probes [1]. Now that a stable tracepoint
is available, this commit replaces the bio latency check with it.

One of the changes made during this replacement is the key used for the
hash table. Since 'struct request' cannot be used as a hash key, the
approach taken follows that which was implemented in bcc/biolatency [2].
(uses dev:sector for the key)

samples/bpf: unify bpf program suffix to .bpf with tracing programs

Currently, BPF programs typically have a suffix of .bpf.c. However,
some programs still utilize a mixture of _kern.c suffix alongside the
naming convention. In order to achieve consistency in the naming of
these programs, this commit unifies the inconsistency in the naming
convention of BPF kernel programs.
