    samples/bpf: fix broken map lookup probe
    
    [ Upstream commit d93a7cf6ca2cfcd7de5d06f753ce8d5e863316ac ]
    
    In the commit 7c4cd051add3 ("bpf: Fix syscall's stackmap lookup
    potential deadlock"), a potential deadlock issue was addressed, which
    resulted in *_map_lookup_elem not triggering BPF programs.
    (prior to lookup, bpf_disable_instrumentation() is used)
    
    To resolve the broken map lookup probe using "htab_map_lookup_elem",
    this commit introduces an alternative approach. Instead, it utilize
    "bpf_map_copy_value" and apply a filter specifically for the hash table
    with map_type.
