libbpf: Fix perm errors for LDIMM_64_FULL_RANGE_OFF

Commit 728ff167910e ("libbpf: Add gating for arena globals relocation feature")
adds a feature flag for testing whether the running kernel supports LDIMM64
instructions with large direct offsets. Fix two edge cases that can
cause unexpected -EPERM errors in two ways:

1) The probe program used for the feature has type TRACEPOINT, but it's
possible the caller does not have permission to load it, even if it is
able to do so for generic BPF programs. Use the SOCKET_FILTER type
instead that requires fewer permissions. This does not affect the check
itself, which will always fail verification anyway.

2) The probe is triggered during bpf_object__collect_relos(), itself
called in bpf_object_open(), to compute the arena relocation offsets of
arena variables. However, the caller may not have permissions to load
BPF programs. This is the case in some systems with the bpftool calls made
by the BPF selftests during compilation, e.g., for skeleton generation.
Move all uses of the feature check to bpf_object_prepare() time instead.
