looking at patch #5, there is nothing special about this cand_cache,
it's just a hashmap from u32 to some pointer. There is no need for
libbpf to expose it to bpftool, you already have hashmap itself and
also btfgen_hash_fn and equality callback, just do the same thing as
you do with btfgen_info->types hashmap.
