Merge branch 'bpf-global-funcs'

Alexei Starovoitov says:

====================
Introduce static vs global functions and function by function verification.
This is another step toward dynamic re-linking (or replacement) of global
functions. See patch 2 for details.

v2->v3:
- cleaned up a check spotted by Song.
- rebased and dropped patch 2 that was trying to improve BTF based on ELF.
- added one more unit test for scalar return value from global func.

v1->v2:
- addressed review comments from Song, Andrii, Yonghong
- fixed memory leak in error path
- added modified ctx check
- added more tests in patch 7
====================
