libbpf: provide more helpful message on uninitialized global var
When BPF program defines uninitialized global variable, it's put into a special COMMON section. Libbpf will reject such programs, but will provide very unhelpful message with garbage-looking section index. This patch detects special section cases and gives more explicit error message.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
