Improve perf related BPF tests (sample_freq issue)

Linux kernel may automatically reduce kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate
value when running tests in parallel on slow systems. Linux kernel checks
against this limit when opening perf event with freq=1 parameter set.
The lower bound is 1000. This patch reduces sample_freq value to 1000
in all BPF tests that use sample_freq to ensure they always can open
perf event.

selftests/bpf: Turn on libbpf 1.0 mode and fix all IS_ERR checks

Turn ony libbpf 1.0 mode. Fix all the explicit IS_ERR checks that now will be
broken because libbpf returns NULL on error (and sets errno). Fix
ASSERT_OK_PTR and ASSERT_ERR_PTR to work for both old mode and new modes and
use them throughout selftests. This is trivial to do by using
libbpf_get_error() API that all libbpf users are supposed to use, instead of
IS_ERR checks.

A bunch of checks also did explicit -1 comparison for various fd-returning
APIs. Such checks are replaced with >= 0 or < 0 cases.

There were also few misuses of bpf_object__find_map_by_name() in test_maps.
Those are fixed in this patch as well.

# 67306f84 17-Feb-2020 Daniel Xu <dxu@dxuuu.xyz>

selftests/bpf: Add bpf_read_branch_records() selftest

Add a selftest to test:

* default bpf_read_branch_records() behavior
* BPF_F_GET_BRANCH_RECORDS_SIZE flag behavior
* error path on non branch record perf events
* using helper to write to stack
* using helper to write to global

On host with hardware counter support:

# ./test_progs -t perf_branches
#27/1 perf_branches_hw:OK
#27/2 perf_branches_no_hw:OK
#27 perf_branches:OK
Summary: 1/2 PASSED, 0 SKIPPED, 0 FAILED

On host without hardware counter support (VM):

# ./test_progs -t perf_branches
#27/1 perf_branches_hw:OK
#27/2 perf_branches_no_hw:OK
#27 perf_branches:OK
Summary: 1/2 PASSED, 1 SKIPPED, 0 FAILED

Also sync tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h.
