====================
As part of the effort to move towards a v1.0 for libbpf [0], this set
improves some confusing function names related to BTF loading from and to
the kernel:
- btf__load() becomes btf__load_into_kernel().
- btf__get_from_id becomes btf__load_from_kernel_by_id().
- A new version btf__load_from_kernel_by_id_split() extends the former to
add support for split BTF.
The last patch is a trivial change to bpftool to add support for dumping
split BTF objects by referencing them by their id (and not only by their
BTF path).

v3:
- Use libbpf_err_ptr() in btf__load_from_kernel_by_id(), ERR_PTR() in
bpftool's get_map_kv_btf().
- Move the definition of btf__load_from_kernel_by_id() closer to the
btf__parse() group in btf.h (move the legacy function with it).
- Fix a bug on the return value in libbpf_find_prog_btf_id(), as a new
patch.
- Move the btf__free() fixes to their own patch.
- Add "Fixes:" tags to relevant patches.
v2:
- Remove deprecation marking of legacy functions (patch 4/6 from v1).
- Make btf__load_from_kernel_by_id{,_split}() return the btf struct, adjust
surrounding code and call btf__free() when missing.
- Add new functions to v0.5.0 API (and not v0.6.0).
