bpf_object_open_opts.attach_prog_fd makes a pretty strong assumption that bpf_object contains either only single freplace BPF program or all of BPF programs in BPF object are freplaces intended to replace different subprograms of the same target BPF program. This seems both a bit confusing, too assuming, and limiting. We've had bpf_program__set_attach_target() API which allows more fine-grained control over this, on a per-program level. As such, mark open_opts.attach_prog_fd as deprecated starting from v0.7, so that we have one more universal way of setting freplace targets. With previous change to allow NULL attach_func_name argument, and especially combined with BPF skeleton, arguable bpf_program__set_attach_target() is a more convenient and explicit API as well.
