Share relocation implementation with the kernel. As part of this, we also need the type/string iteration functions so also share btf_iter.c file. Relocation code in kernel and userspace is identical save for the impementation of the reparenting of split BTF to the relocated base BTF and retrieval of the BTF header from "struct btf"; these small functions need separate user-space and kernel implementations for the separate "struct btf"s they operate upon. One other wrinkle on the kernel side is we have to map .BTF.ids in modules as they were generated with the type ids used at BTF encoding time. btf_relocate() optionally returns an array mapping from old BTF ids to relocated ids, so we use that to fix up these references where needed for kfuncs.

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 reStructuredText 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.
