[PATCH bpf-next v3 1/2] selftests/bpf: Annotate bpf_obj_new_impl() with __must_check

[Ilya Leoshkevich <iii@linux.ibm.com>]

The verifier requires that pointers returned by bpf_obj_new_impl() are
either dropped or stored in a map. Therefore programs that do not use
its return values will fail to load. Make the compiler point out these
issues. Adjust selftests that check that the verifier does indeed spot
these bugs.

Note that now there two different bpf_obj_new_impl() declarations: one
with __must_check from bpf_experimental.h, and one without from
vmlinux.h. According to the GCC doc [1] this is fine and has the
desired effect:

    Compatible attribute specifications on distinct declarations of the
    same function are merged.
