bpf_link->destroy() isn't used by any code, so remove it. Instead, add ability to override deallocation procedure, with default doing plain free(link). This is necessary for cases when we want to "subclass" struct bpf_link to keep extra information, as is the case in the next patch adding struct bpf_link_perf.
