Currently when you want to attach a trace program to a bpf program
the section name needs to match the tracepoint/function semantics.
However the addition of the bpf_program__set_attach_target() API
allows you to specify the tracepoint/function dynamically.
The call flow would look something like this:
xdp_fd = bpf_prog_get_fd_by_id(id);
trace_obj = bpf_object__open_file("func.o", NULL);
prog = bpf_object__find_program_by_title(trace_obj,
"fentry/myfunc");
bpf_program__set_expected_attach_type(prog, BPF_TRACE_FENTRY);
bpf_program__set_attach_target(prog, xdp_fd,
"xdpfilt_blk_all");
bpf_object__load(trace_obj)

v1 -> v2: Remove requirement for attach type hint in API
v2 -> v3: Moved common warning to __find_vmlinux_btf_id, requested by Andrii
Updated the xdp_bpf2bpf test to use this new API
v3 -> v4: Split up patch, update libbpf.map version
v4 -> v5: Fix return code, and prog assignment in test case
