Update the documentation to provide help about JSON output generation,
and add an example in bpftool-prog manual page.
Also reintroduce an example that was left aside when the tool was moved
from GitHub to the kernel sources, in order to show how to mount the
bpffs file system (to pin programs) inside the bpftool-prog manual page.

As all commands can now return JSON output (possibly just a "null"
value), output of `bpftool --json batch file FILE` should also be fully
JSON compliant.

Turn err() and info() macros into functions.
In order to avoid naming conflicts with variables in the code, rename
them as p_err() and p_info() respectively.
The behavior of these functions is similar to the one of the macros for
plain output. However, when JSON output is requested, these macros
return a JSON-formatted "error" object instead of printing a message to
stderr.
To handle error messages correctly with JSON, a modification was brought
to their behavior nonetheless: the functions now append a end-of-line
character at the end of the message. This way, we can remove end-of-line
characters at the end of the argument strings, and not have them in the
JSON output.
All error messages are formatted to hold in a single call to p_err(), in
order to produce a single JSON field.

Reuse the json_writer API introduced in an earlier commit to make
bpftool able to generate JSON output on
`bpftool map { show | dump | lookup | getnext }` commands. Remaining
commands produce no output.
Some functions have been spit into plain-output and JSON versions in
order to remain readable.
Outputs for sample maps have been successfully tested against a JSON
validator.

Make error messages more consistent. Specifically, when bpftool fails at
parsing map key bytes, make it print a single error message to stderr
and return from the function, instead of (always) printing a second
error message afterwards.

Make print_hex() able to print to any file instead of standard output
only, and rename it to fprint_hex(). The function can now be called with
the info() macro, for example, without splitting the output between
standard and error outputs.
