Support for clang's __attribute__((btf_decl_tag("..."))) by
btf_dump__dump_type and btf_dump__dump_type_data functions.
Decl tag attributes are restored for:
- structs and unions
- struct and union fields
- typedefs
- global variables
- function prototype parameters

The attribute is restored using __btf_decl_tag macro that is printed
upon first call to btf_dump__dump_type function:

 #if __has_attribute(btf_decl_tag)
 #define __btf_decl_tag(x) __attribute__((btf_decl_tag(x)))
 #else
 #define __btf_decl_tag(x)
 #endif

To simplify testing of the btf_dump__dump_type_data the
prog_tests/btf_dump.c:test_btf_dump_case is extended to invoke
btf_dump__dump_type_data for each DATASEC object in the test case
binary file.

Changelog:
v1 -> v2:
- prog_tests/btf_dump.c:test_btf_dump_case modified to print DATASECs
  using btf_dump__dump_type_data;
- support for decl tags applied to global variables and function
  prototype parameters;
- update to support interleaved calls to btf_dump__dump_type and
  btf__add_decl_tag (incremental dump);
- fix for potential double free error in btf_dump_assign_decl_tags;
- styling fixes suggested by Andrii.

RFC -> v1:
- support for decl tags applied to struct / union fields and typedefs;
- __btf_decl_tag macro;
- btf_dump->decl_tags hash and equal functions updated to use integer
  key instead of a pointer;
- realloc_decl_tags function removed;
- update for allocation logic in btf_dump_assign_decl_tags.
