libbpf: Add "map_extra" as a per-map-type extra flag
This patch adds the libbpf infrastructure for supporting a per-map-type "map_extra" field, whose definition will be idiosyncratic depending on map type. For example, for the bloom filter map, the lower 4 bits of map_extra is used to denote the number of hash functions. Please note that until libbpf 1.0 is here, the "bpf_create_map_params" struct is used as a temporary means for propagating the map_extra field to the kernel.
