So, first of all, I'm not sure whether the BPF verifier being so
strict about BTF names is necessary, but I haven't thought a lot about
that. Just pointing out I myself wouldn't object lifting any kind of
restriction there, in principle.

But then for the Zig naming thing. Doesn't Zig have some sort of
mangling schema, like C++ or Rust do? Would it make sense to store
mangled names in BTF then?
