The -target option has been deprecated since clang 3.4 in 2013. Therefore, use
the preferred --target=bpf form instead. This also matches how we use --target=
in scripts/Makefile.clang.

<title>bpf: iterators: Split iterators.lskel.h into little- and big- endian versions</title>

iterators.lskel.h is little-endian, therefore bpf iterator is currently
broken on big-endian systems. Introduce a big-endian version and add
instructions regarding its generation. Unfortunately bpftool's
cross-endianness capabilities are limited to BTF right now, so the
procedure requires access to a big-endian machine or a configured
emulator.

kernel/bpf/preload/iterators use bpftool for vmlinux.h, skeleton, and
static linking only. So we can use lightweight bootstrap version of
bpftool to handle these, and it will be faster.

<title>bpftool: Add install-bin target to install binary only</title>

With "make install", bpftool installs its binary and its bash completion
file. Usually, this is what we want. But a few components in the kernel
repository (namely, BPF iterators and selftests) also install bpftool
locally before using it. In such a case, bash completion is not
necessary and is just a useless build artifact.

Let's add an "install-bin" target to bpftool, to offer a way to install
the binary only.

API headers from libbpf should not be accessed directly from the
library's source directory. Instead, they should be exported with "make
install_headers". Let's make sure that bpf/preload/iterators/Makefile
installs the headers properly when building.

<title>bpf: Add BPF program and map iterators as built-in BPF programs.</title>

The program and map iterators work similar to seq_file-s.
Once the program is pinned in bpffs it can be read with "cat" tool
to print human readable output. In this case about BPF programs and maps.
For example:
$ cat /sys/fs/bpf/progs.debug
  id name            attached
   5 dump_bpf_map    bpf_iter_bpf_map
   6 dump_bpf_prog   bpf_iter_bpf_prog
$ cat /sys/fs/bpf/maps.debug
  id name            max_entries
   3 iterator.rodata     1

To avoid kernel build dependency on clang 10 separate bpf skeleton generation
into manual "make" step and instead check-in generated .skel.h into git.

Unlike 'bpftool prog show' in-kernel BTF name is used (when available)
to print full name of BPF program instead of 16-byte truncated name.
