selftests/bpf: Validate skeleton gen handles skipped fields

Adjust static_linked selftests to test a mix of global and static variables
and their handling of bpftool's skeleton generation code.

selftests/bpf: Stop using static variables for passing data to/from user-space

In preparation of skipping emitting static variables in BPF skeletons, switch
all current selftests uses of static variables to pass data between BPF and
user-space to use global variables.

All non-read-only `static volatile` variables become just plain global
variables by dropping `static volatile` part.

Read-only `static volatile const` variables, though, still require `volatile`
modifier, otherwise compiler will ignore whatever values are set from
user-space.

Few static linker tests are using name-conflicting static variables to
validate that static linker still properly handles static variables and
doesn't trip up on name conflicts.

selftests/bpf: Add multi-file statically linked BPF object file test

Add Makefile infra to specify multi-file BPF object files (and derivative
skeletons). Add first selftest validating BPF static linker can merge together
successfully two independent BPF object files and resulting object and
skeleton are correct and usable.

Use the same F(F(F(X))) = F(F(X)) identity test on linked object files as for
the case of single BPF object files.
