Hi,
This set add a new command to bpftool in order to dump a list of
eBPF-related parameters for the system (or for a specific network
device) to the console. Once again, this is based on a suggestion from
Daniel.

At this time, output includes:

    - Availability of bpf() system call
    - Availability of bpf() system call for unprivileged users
    - JIT status (enabled or not, with or without debugging traces)
    - JIT hardening status
    - JIT kallsyms exports status
    - Status of kernel compilation options related to BPF features
    - Release number of the running kernel
    - Availability of known eBPF program types
    - Availability of known eBPF map types
    - Availability of known eBPF helper functions

There are three different ways to dump this information at this time:

    - Plain output dumps probe results in plain text. It is the most
      flexible options for providing descriptive output to the user, but
      should not be relied upon for parsing the output.
    - JSON output is supported.
    - A third mode, available through the "macros" keyword appended to
      the command line, dumps the parameters as a series of "#define"
      directives, that can be included into a C header file for example.

If the user does not have root privileges (or more precisely, the
CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability) detection will be erroneous for most
parameters. Therefore, forbid non-root users to run the command.
