commit:67c0496e87d193b8356d2af49ab95e8a1b954b3c(kernfs: convert
kernfs_node->id from union kernfs_node_id to u64).

The bpf program compiles on the kernel version after this commit and
then tries to run on the kernel before this commit, libbpf will report
an error. The reverse is also same.

libbpf: prog 'tcp_retransmit_synack_tp': relo #4: kind <byte_off> (0),
spec is [342] struct kernfs_node.id (0:9 @ offset 104)
libbpf: prog 'tcp_retransmit_synack_tp': relo #4: non-matching candidate
libbpf: prog 'tcp_retransmit_synack_tp': relo #4: non-matching candidate
libbpf: prog 'tcp_retransmit_synack_tp': relo #4: no matching targets
found

The type before this commit:
         union kernfs_node_id    id;
         union kernfs_node_id {
                 struct {
                         u32             ino;
                         u32             generation;
                 };
                 u64                     id;
         };

The type after this commit:
         u64 id;

We can find that the variable name and size have not changed except for
the type change.
So I added some judgment to let any two INT/UNION are compatible, if
their names and sizes match.

This should be handled by application, not by hacking libbpf's CO-RE
relocation logic. See [0] for how this should be done with existing
BPF CO-RE mechanisms.

This is very useful to me, thank you very much.
