bpf: Add bpf_btf_find_by_name_kind() helper.
Add new helper: long bpf_btf_find_by_name_kind(char *name, int name_sz, u32 kind, int flags) Description Find BTF type with given name and kind in vmlinux BTF or in module's BTFs. Return Returns btf_id and btf_obj_fd in lower and upper 32 bits. It will be used by loader program to find btf_id to attach the program to and to find btf_ids of ksyms.
