Previous maximum supported integer bit width is 64. But
the __int128 type has been supported by most (if not all)
64bit architectures including bpf for both gcc and clang.

The kernel itself uses __int128 for x64 and arm64. Some bcc tools
are using __int128 in bpf programs to describe ipv6 addresses.
Without 128bit int support, the vmlinux BTF won't work and
those bpf programs using __int128 cannot utilize BTF.

This patch set implemented BTF __int128 support.
Patch #1 added __int128 support in the kernel.
Patch #2 added raw test for __int128 in test_btf.
Patch #3 refactored test_btf bpffs pretty print test to
         allow different map value structures.
Patch #4 added bpffs pretty print test for __int128.
Patch #5 added __int128 support in bpftool map pretty dumper.
