Yonghong Song 9d100a19ff tools/bpf: print out btf log at LIBBPF_WARN level
Currently, the btf log is allocated and printed out in case
of error at LIBBPF_DEBUG level.
Such logs from kernel are very important for debugging.
For example, bpf syscall BPF_PROG_LOAD command can get
verifier logs back to user space. In function load_program()
of libbpf.c, the log buffer is allocated unconditionally
and printed out at pr_warning() level.

Let us do the similar thing here for btf. Allocate buffer
unconditionally and print out error logs at pr_warning() level.
This can reduce one global function and
optimize for common situations where pr_warning()
is activated either by default or by user supplied
debug output function.

Yonghong Song 8461ef8b7e tools/bpf: move libbpf pr_* debug print functions to headers
A global function libbpf_print, which is invisible
outside the shared library, is defined to print based
on levels. The pr_warning, pr_info and pr_debug
macros are moved into the newly created header
common.h. So any .c file including common.h can
use these macros directly.

Currently btf__new and btf_ext__new API has an argument getting
__pr_debug function pointer into btf.c so the debugging information
can be printed there. This patch removed this parameter
from btf__new and btf_ext__new and directly using pr_debug in btf.c.

Another global function libbpf_print_level_available, also
invisible outside the shared library, can test
whether a particular level debug printing is
available or not. It is used in btf.c to
test whether DEBUG level debug printing is availabl or not,
based on which the log buffer will be allocated when loading
btf to the kernel.
