Daniel Borkmann 8837fe5dd0 bpf, libbpf: handle old kernels more graceful wrt global data sections
Andrii reported a corner case where e.g. global static data is present
in the BPF ELF file in form of .data/.bss/.rodata section, but without
any relocations to it. Such programs could be loaded before commit
d859900c4c ("bpf, libbpf: support global data/bss/rodata sections"),
whereas afterwards if kernel lacks support then loading would fail.

Add a probing mechanism which skips setting up libbpf internal maps
in case of missing kernel support. In presence of relocation entries,
we abort the load attempt.

Fixes: d859900c4c ("bpf, libbpf: support global data/bss/rodata sections")
