btf_custom_path allows developers to load custom BTF, and subsequent CO-RE will use custom BTF for relocation. Learn from Andrii's comments in [0], add the btf_custom_path parameter to bpf_obj_open_opts, you can directly use the skeleton's <objname>_bpf__open_opts function to pass in the btf_custom_path parameter. Prior to this, there was also a developer who provided a patch with similar functions. It is a pity that the follow-up did not continue to advance. See [1].
