Thanks for helping with the libbpf 1.0 effort! But we shouldn't be
removing APIs until right before 1.0 release, otherwise we are
breaking backwards compatibility guarantees. So this will have to wait
until then (even though I don't believe anyone is using
bpf_object__find_map_by_offset() in the wild).

we can't retroactively modify libbpf.map for already released
versions. I think once we are ready for libbpf 1.0 we'll just dump all
the non-deleted APIs into a LIBBPF_1.0.0 section without inheriting
from the last 0.x version.
