[PATCH bpf-next] bpftool: cast pointers for shadow types explicitly.

[Kui-Feng Lee <thinker.li@gmail.com>]

According to a report, skeletons fail to assign shadow pointers when being
compiled with C++ programs. Unlike C doing implicit casting for void
pointers, C++ requires an explicit casting.

To support C++, we do explicit casting for each shadow pointer.
