bpf: Add BPF_KPTR_PERCPU as a field type



BPF_KPTR_PERCPU represents a percpu field type like below

  struct val_t {
    ... fields ...
  };
  struct t {
    ...
    struct val_t __percpu_kptr *percpu_data_ptr;
    ...
  };

where
  #define __percpu_kptr __attribute__((btf_type_tag("percpu_kptr")))

While BPF_KPTR_REF points to a trusted kernel object or a trusted
local object, BPF_KPTR_PERCPU points to a trusted local
percpu object.

This patch added basic support for BPF_KPTR_PERCPU
related to percpu_kptr field parsing, recording and free operations.
BPF_KPTR_PERCPU also supports the same map types
as BPF_KPTR_REF does.

Note that unlike a local kptr, it is possible that
a BPF_KTPR_PERCPU struct may not contain any
special fields like other kptr, bpf_spin_lock, bpf_list_head, etc.
