libbpf: Fix build with gcc-8

Reported in [1].

With gcc 8.3.0 the following error is issued:

  cc -Ibpf@sta -I. -I.. -I.././include -I.././include/uapi
  -fdiagnostics-color=always -fsanitize=address,undefined -fno-omit-frame-pointer
  -pipe -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -Wall -Winvalid-pch -Werror -g -fPIC -g -O2
  -Werror -Wall -Wno-pointer-arith -Wno-sign-compare  -MD -MQ
  'bpf@sta/src_libbpf.c.o' -MF 'bpf@sta/src_libbpf.c.o.d' -o
  'bpf@sta/src_libbpf.c.o' -c ../src/libbpf.c
  ../src/libbpf.c: In function 'bpf_object__elf_collect':
  ../src/libbpf.c:947:18: error: 'map_def_sz' may be used uninitialized in this
  function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
     if (map_def_sz <= sizeof(struct bpf_map_def)) {
         ~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  ../src/libbpf.c:827:18: note: 'map_def_sz' was declared here
    int i, map_idx, map_def_sz, nr_syms, nr_maps = 0, nr_maps_glob = 0;
                    ^~~~~~~~~~

According to [2] -Wmaybe-uninitialized is enabled by -Wall.
Same error is generated by clang's -Wconditional-uninitialized.
