run_time_ns is a useful stats for BPF programs. However, it is gated by sysctl kernel.bpf_stats_enabled. When multiple user space tools are toggling kernl.bpf_stats_enabled at the same time, they may confuse each other. Solve this problem with a new BPF command BPF_ENABLE_STATS. Changes v4 => v5: 1. Use memset to zero bpf_attr in bpf_enable_stats() (Andrii). Changes v3 => v4: 1. Add libbpf support and selftest; 2. Avoid cleaning trailing space. Changes v2 => v3: 1. Rename the command to BPF_ENABLE_STATS, and make it extendible. 2. fix commit log; 3. remove unnecessary headers.
