btf_encoder__tag_kfuncs() reads .BTF_ids section to identify a set of
kfuncs present in the ELF file being processed.
This section consists of:
- arrays of uint32_t elements;
- arrays of records with the following structure:
   struct btf_id_and_flag {
       uint32_t id;
       uint32_t flags;
   };

When endianness of a binary operated by pahole differs from the host
system's endianness, these fields require byte-swapping before use.
Currently, this byte-swapping does not occur, resulting in kfuncs not
being marked with declaration tags.

This commit resolves the issue by using elf_getdata_rawchunk()
function to read .BTF_ids section data. When called with ELF_T_WORD as
'type' parameter it does necessary byte order conversion
(only if host and elf endianness do not match).
