Okash Khawaja b12d6ec097 bpf: btf: add btf print functionality
This consumes functionality exported in the previous patch. It does the
main job of printing with BTF data. This is used in the following patch
to provide a more readable output of a map's dump. It relies on
json_writer to do json printing. Below is sample output where map keys
are ints and values are of type struct A:

typedef int int_type;
enum E {
        E0,
        E1,
};

struct B {
        int x;
        int y;
};

struct A {
        int m;
        unsigned long long n;
        char o;
        int p[8];
        int q[4][8];
        enum E r;
        void *s;
        struct B t;
        const int u;
        int_type v;
        unsigned int w1: 3;
        unsigned int w2: 3;
};

$ sudo bpftool map dump id 14
[{
        "key": 0,
        "value": {
            "m": 1,
            "n": 2,
            "o": "c",
            "p": [15,16,17,18,15,16,17,18
            ],
            "q": [[25,26,27,28,25,26,27,28
                ],[35,36,37,38,35,36,37,38
                ],[45,46,47,48,45,46,47,48
                ],[55,56,57,58,55,56,57,58
                ]
            ],
            "r": 1,
            "s": 0x7ffd80531cf8,
            "t": {
                "x": 5,
                "y": 10
            },
            "u": 100,
            "v": 20,
            "w1": 0x7,
            "w2": 0x3
        }
    }
]

This patch uses json's {} and [] to imply struct/union and array. More
explicit information can be added later. For example, a command line
option can be introduced to print whether a key or value is struct
or union, name of a struct etc. This will however come at the expense
of duplicating info when, for example, printing an array of structs.
enums are printed as ints without their names.
