bpf: Add bpf_seq_printf_btf helper
A helper is added to allow seq file writing of kernel data
structures using vmlinux BTF. Its signature is
long bpf_seq_printf_btf(struct seq_file *m, struct btf_ptr *ptr,
u32 btf_ptr_size, u64 flags);
Flags and struct btf_ptr definitions/use are identical to the
bpf_snprintf_btf helper, and the helper returns 0 on success
or a negative error value.
