Why not exported? Please use a proper _opts struct just like others
(e.g., bpf_object_open_opts) and add is as a public API, it's a useful
addition. We are going to have a similar structure for attach_uprobe,
btw. Please send a follow up patch.

when you make it part of libbpf API, let's call it something shorter,
like bpf_kprobe_opts, maybe? And later we'll have bpf_uprobe_opts for
uprobes. Short and unambiguous.
