pahole -J uses libelf directly when updating a .BTF section. However,
it uses llvm-objcopy to add .BTF sections. This commit switches to
using libelf for both cases.
This eliminates pahole's dependency on llvm-objcopy. One unfortunate
side-effect is that vmlinux actually increases in size. It seems that
llvm-objcopy modifies the .strtab section, discarding many strings. I
speculate that is it discarding strings not referenced from .symtab
and updating the references therein.
In this initial version layout is left completely up to libelf which
may be OK for non-loadable object files, but is probably no good for
things like vmlinux where all the offsets may change. This is
addressed in a follow-up commit.
