[PATCH bpf-next v12 06/11] btf: Optimize type lookup with binary search

[Donglin Peng <dolinux.peng@gmail.com>]

From: Donglin Peng <pengdonglin@xiaomi.com>

Improve btf_find_by_name_kind() performance by adding binary search
support for sorted types. Falls back to linear search for compatibility.
