Question to you and Jiri: what happens when multi-kprobe's syms has
duplicates? Will the program be attached multiple times? If yes, then
it sounds like a problem? Both available_filters and kallsyms can have
duplicate function names in them, right?

quite mouthful, maybe just "available_kprobe_cb_t"? "filters"
terminology isn't common within libbpf and BPF tracing in general

let's call it "libbpf_available_kprobes_parse" ?

we need to check between DEBUGFS and TRACEFS, let's do something like
tracefs_kprobe_events()

preserve errno, just like libbpf_kallsyms_parse

%255s, similar to libbpf_kallsyms_probe. You have precedent code that
does parsing like this, please stick to the same approaches

there is no need to assume that res->addrs will be null, let's free it
unconditionally. free() handles NULL just fine
