[PATCH v3 3/9] bpf/btf: Add a function to search a member of a struct/union

[Masami Hiramatsu (Google)]

From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx>

Add btf_find_struct_member() API to search a member of a given data structure
or union from the member's name.

 Changes in v3:
  - Remove simple input check.
  - Fix unneeded IS_ERR_OR_NULL() check for btf_type_by_id().
  - Move the code next to btf_get_func_param().
  - Use for_each_member() macro instead of for-loop.
  - Use btf_type_skip_modifiers() instead of btf_type_by_id().
