bpf_helpers_doc.py script, used to generate bpf_helper_defs.h, unconditionally
emits one informational message to stderr. Remove it and preserve stderr to
contain only relevant errors. Also make sure script invocations command is
muted by default in libbpf's Makefile.

Libbpf's clean target should clean out generated files in $(OUTPUT) directory
and not make assumption that $(OUTPUT) directory is current working directory.

Selftest's Makefile should delegate cleaning of libbpf-generated files to
libbpf's Makefile. This ensures more robust clean up.

I got the following error when I tried to build perf on a read-only

It was becaused bpf_helper_defs.h was generated in current directory.
Move it to OUTPUT directory.

This fixes two issues with the newly introduced libbpf_common.h file:

- The header failed to include <string.h> for the definition of memset()
- The new file was not included in the install_headers rule in the Makefile

Both of these issues cause breakage when installing libbpf with 'make
install' and trying to use it in applications.

Add support for extern variables, provided to BPF program by libbpf. Currently
the following extern variables are supported:
  - LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION; version of a kernel in which BPF program is
    executing, follows KERNEL_VERSION() macro convention, can be 4- and 8-byte
    long;
  - CONFIG_xxx values; a set of values of actual kernel config. Tristate,
    boolean, strings, and integer values are supported.

Set of possible values is determined by declared type of extern variable.
Supported types of variables are:
- Tristate values. Are represented as `enum libbpf_tristate`. Accepted values
  are **strictly** 'y', 'n', or 'm', which are represented as TRI_YES, TRI_NO,
  or TRI_MODULE, respectively.
- Boolean values. Are represented as bool (_Bool) types. Accepted values are
  'y' and 'n' only, turning into true/false values, respectively.
- Single-character values. Can be used both as a substritute for
  bool/tristate, or as a small-range integer:
  - 'y'/'n'/'m' are represented as is, as characters 'y', 'n', or 'm';
  - integers in a range [-128, 127] or [0, 255] (depending on signedness of
    char in target architecture) are recognized and represented with
    respective values of char type.
- Strings. String values are declared as fixed-length char arrays. String of
  up to that length will be accepted and put in first N bytes of char array,
  with the rest of bytes zeroed out. If config string value is longer than
  space alloted, it will be truncated and warning message emitted. Char array
  is always zero terminated. String literals in config have to be enclosed in
  double quotes, just like C-style string literals.
- Integers. 8-, 16-, 32-, and 64-bit integers are supported, both signed and
  unsigned variants. Libbpf enforces parsed config value to be in the
  supported range of corresponding integer type. Integers values in config can
  be:
  - decimal integers, with optional + and - signs;
  - hexadecimal integers, prefixed with 0x or 0X;
  - octal integers, starting with 0.

Config file itself is searched in /boot/config-$(uname -r) location with
fallback to /proc/config.gz, unless config path is specified explicitly
through bpf_object_open_opts' kernel_config_path option. Both gzipped and
plain text formats are supported. Libbpf adds explicit dependency on zlib
because of this, but this shouldn't be a problem, given libelf already depends
on zlib.

All detected extern variables, are put into a separate .extern internal map.
It, similarly to .rodata map, is marked as read-only from BPF program side, as
well as is frozen on load. This allows BPF verifier to track extern values as
constants and perform enhanced branch prediction and dead code elimination.
This can be relied upon for doing kernel version/feature detection and using
potentially unsupported field relocations or BPF helpers in a CO-RE-based BPF
program, while still having a single version of BPF program running on old and
new kernels. Selftests are validating this explicitly for unexisting BPF
helper.

Fedora binutils has been patched to show "other info" for a symbol at the
end of the line. This was done in order to support unmaintained scripts
that would break with the extra info. [1]

[1] https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/binutils/c/b8265c46f7ddae23a792ee8306fbaaeacba83bf8

This in turn has been done to fix the build of ruby, because of checksec.
[2] Thanks Michael Ellerman for the pointer.

As libbpf Makefile is not unmaintained, we can simply deal with either
output format, by just removing the "other info" field, as it always comes
inside brackets.

Commit 5c26f9a78358 ("libbpf: Don't use cxx to test_libpf target")
converted existing c++ test to c. We still want to include and
link against libbpf from c++ code, so reinstate this test back,
this time in a form of a selftest with a clear comment about
its purpose.

On powerpc with recent versions of binutils, readelf outputs an extra
field when dumping the symbols of an object file. For example:

    35: 0000000000000838    96 FUNC    LOCAL  DEFAULT [<localentry>: 8]     1 btf_is_struct

The extra "[<localentry>: 8]" prevents the GLOBAL_SYM_COUNT variable to
be computed correctly and causes the check_abi target to fail.

Fix that by looking for the symbol name in the last field instead of the
8th one. This way it should also cope with future extra fields.

  $ make -C tools/perf build-test

does, ends up with these two problems:

  make[3]: *** No rule to make target '/tmp/tmp.zq13cHILGB/perf-5.3.0/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h', needed by 'bpf_helper_defs.h'.  Stop.
  make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
  make[2]: *** [Makefile.perf:757: /tmp/tmp.zq13cHILGB/perf-5.3.0/tools/lib/bpf/libbpf.a] Error 2
  make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

Because $(srcdir) points to the /tmp/tmp.zq13cHILGB/perf-5.3.0 directory
and we need '/tools/ after that variable, and after fixing this then we
get to another problem:

  /bin/sh: /home/acme/git/perf/tools/scripts/bpf_helpers_doc.py: No such file or directory
  make[3]: *** [Makefile:184: bpf_helper_defs.h] Error 127
  make[3]: *** Deleting file 'bpf_helper_defs.h'

  make[2]: *** [Makefile.perf:778: /tmp/build/perf/libbpf.a] Error 2
  make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

Because this requires something outside the tools/ directories that gets
collected into perf's detached tarballs, to fix it just add it to
tools/perf/MANIFEST, which this patch does, now it works for that case
and also for all these other cases.
