bpf: Factor btf_struct_access function
Adding btf_struct_walk function that walks through the struct type + given offset and returns following values: enum bpf_struct_walk_result { /* < 0 error */ WALK_SCALAR = 0, WALK_PTR, WALK_STRUCT, }; WALK_SCALAR - when SCALAR_VALUE is found WALK_PTR - when pointer value is found, its ID is stored in 'next_btf_id' output param WALK_STRUCT - when nested struct object is found, its ID is stored in 'next_btf_id' output param It will be used in following patches to get all nested struct objects for given type and offset. The btf_struct_access now calls btf_struct_walk function, as long as it gets nested structs as return value.
