There are cases where clang compiler is packaged in a way readelf is a symbolic link to llvm-readelf. In such cases, llvm-readelf will be used instead of default binutils readelf, and the following error will appear during libbpf build: Warning: Num of global symbols in /home/yhs/work/bpf-next/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/tools/build/libbpf/sharedobjs/libbpf-in.o (367) does NOT match with num of versioned symbols in /home/yhs/work/bpf-next/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/tools/build/libbpf/libbpf.so libbpf.map (383).

The binutils readelf doesn't print out the symbol LIBBPF_* version and llvm-readelf does. Such a difference caused libbpf build failure with llvm-readelf. To fix the issue, let us do proper filtering for LIBBPF_*@@LIBBPF_* symbols. The proposed fix works for both binutils readelf and llvm-readelf.
