Thanks, I'll probably remove that altogether and do auto inference of
prog_type from the section name here.

Isn't it used only in __bpf_object__open_xattr to require/not-require kernel
version in the bpf prog?

It will probably work quite nicely for both of our options:

* type not specified: prog_type = BPF_PROG_TYPE_UNSPEC, need kernel
  version (over cautious?)
* type specified (and applied to all progs): using bpf_prog_type__needs_kver
  to require/not requqire kernel version
