Change sanitization process to preserve original BTF, which might be used by libbpf itself for Kconfig externs, CO-RE relocs, etc, even if kernel is old and doesn't support BTF. To achieve that, if libbpf detects the need for BTF sanitization, it would clone original BTF, sanitize it in-place, attempt to load it into kernel, and if successful, will preserve loaded BTF FD in original `struct btf`, while freeing sanitized local copy. If kernel doesn't support any BTF, original btf and btf_ext will still be preserved to be used later for CO-RE relocation and other BTF-dependent libbpf features, which don't dependon kernel BTF support. Patch takes care to not specify BTF and BTF.ext features when loading BPF programs and/or maps, if it was detected that kernel doesn't support BTF features.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
