[PATCH bpf-next v2 7/9] libbpf: don't free btf if program of multi-link tracing existing

[Menglong Dong]

By default, the kernel btf that we load during loading program will be
freed after the programs are loaded in bpf_object_load(). However, we
still need to use these btf for tracing of multi-link during attaching.
Therefore, we don't free the btfs until the bpf object is closed if any
bpf programs of the type multi-link tracing exist.

Meanwhile, introduce the new api bpf_object__free_btf() to manually free
the btfs after attaching.
