Emit "Processing <filepath>..." for each BPF object file to be processed, to show progress. But also add -q (--quiet) flag to silence such messages. Doing something more clever (like overwriting same output line) is to cumbersome and easily breakable if there is any other console output (e.g., errors from libbpf).
