libbpf: improve handling of unresolved kfuncs

Currently, libbpf leaves `call #0` instruction for __weak unresolved
kfuncs, which might lead to a confusing verifier log situations, where
invalid `call #0` will be treated as successfully validated.

We can do better. Libbpf already has an established mechanism of
poisoning instructions that failed some form of resolution (e.g., CO-RE
relocation and BPF map set to not be auto-created). Libbpf doesn't fail
them outright to allow users to guard them through other means, and as
long as BPF verifier can prove that such poisoned instructions cannot be
ever reached, this doesn't consistute an invalid BPF program. If user
didn't guard such code, libbpf will extract few pieces of information to
tie such poisoned instructions back to additional information about what
entitity wasn't resolved (e.g., BPF map name, or CO-RE relocation
information).

__weak unresolved kfuncs fit this model well, so this patch extends
libbpf with poisioning and log fixup logic for kfunc calls.

Note, this poisoning is done only for kfunc *calls*, not kfunc address
resolution (ldimm64 instructions). The former cannot be ever valid, if
reached, so it's safe to poison them. The latter is a valid mechanism to
check if __weak kfunc ksym was resolved, and do necessary guarding and
work arounds based on this result, supported in most recent kernels. As
such, libbpf keeps such ldimm64 instructions as loading zero, never
poisoning them.
