    libbpf: Support expected_attach_type at prog load · d7be143b

    Support setting `expected_attach_type` at prog load time in both
    `bpf/bpf.h` and `bpf/libbpf.h`.
    
    Since both headers already have API to load programs, new functions are
    added not to break backward compatibility for existing ones:
    * `bpf_load_program_xattr()` is added to `bpf/bpf.h`;
    * `bpf_prog_load_xattr()` is added to `bpf/libbpf.h`.
    
    Both new functions accept structures, `struct bpf_load_program_attr` and
    `struct bpf_prog_load_attr` correspondingly, where new fields can be
    added in the future w/o changing the API.
    
    Standard `_xattr` suffix is used to name the new API functions.
    
    Since `bpf_load_program_name()` is not used as heavily as
    `bpf_load_program()`, it was removed in favor of more generic
    `bpf_load_program_xattr()`.
