Add a BTF dumper for typed data, so that the user can dump a typed
version of the data provided.

The API is

int btf_dump__dump_type_data(struct btf_dump *d, __u32 id,
                             void *data, size_t data_sz,
                             const struct btf_dump_type_data_opts *opts);

...where the id is the BTF id of the data pointed to by the "void *"
argument; for example the BTF id of "struct sk_buff" for a
"struct skb *" data pointer.  Options supported are

 - a starting indent level (indent_lvl)
 - a user-specified indent string which will be printed once per
   indent level; if NULL, tab is chosen but any string <= 32 chars
   can be provided.
 - a set of boolean options to control dump display, similar to those
   used for BPF helper bpf_snprintf_btf().  Options are
        - compact : omit newlines and other indentation
        - skip_names: omit member names
        - emit_zeroes: show zero-value members

Default output format is identical to that dumped by bpf_snprintf_btf(),
for example a "struct sk_buff" representation would look like this:

struct sk_buff){
	(union){
		(struct){
			.next = (struct sk_buff *)0xffffffffffffffff,
			.prev = (struct sk_buff *)0xffffffffffffffff,
		(union){
			.dev = (struct net_device *)0xffffffffffffffff,
			.dev_scratch = (long unsigned int)18446744073709551615,
		},
	},
...

If the data structure is larger than the *data_sz*
number of bytes that are available in *data*, as much
of the data as possible will be dumped and -E2BIG will
be returned.  This is useful as tracers will sometimes
not be able to capture all of the data associated with
a type; for example a "struct task_struct" is ~16k.
Being able to specify that only a subset is available is
important for such cases.  On success, the amount of data
dumped is returned.

Ok, this looks great. I think I found a few residual problems, so
please see comments below and address them. But I'm inclined to land
this patch set as is because it's in a good shape already, and it is
pretty, so it's hard and time-consuming to weed through minor (at this
point) changes between versions. So please send follow-up patch(es)
with fixes. Hopefully soon enough before the libbpf release. Thanks a
lot for working on this and persevering, this is a great API!

I'll apply a patch set to bpf-next when it will open up for new patches. Thanks.

I also wanted to call out this ^^ versus:

a) initial kernel-sharing version:

  >  18 files changed, 3236 insertions(+), 1319 deletions(-)


b) initial libbpf-only version:

  >  6 files changed, 1251 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-)


And the API actually gained in supported features and correctness.

I suspect this logic breaks for multi-dimensional char arrays. Please
check and add follow-up tests and fixes, no need to address that in
this patch set, you've suffered enough.

ah, ok, I see. I sort of randomly stumbled on this from a purely

Wait, you fixed pointer zero checking logic and misaligned reads for
ints/floats, but none of that for actually printing pointers?...
Please send a follow-up fix.

same here, this might be too aggressive for something like char a[2][10] ?

Thanks for the report Naresh! Andrii, I'm thinking the best
approach might be to remove use of int128 and have the bitfield
computations operate on a __u64 representation instead.  With
that change, we would only lose the ability to handle int128
bitfields; what do you think? I hope to have something ready
shortly covering that, the non-propogation of return values
and the endianness issues with enum handling - in fact the
latter goes away if the bitfield computations are done for
64-bit values.

Thanks!

Alan
