libbpf: support llvm-generated indirect jumps

For v4 instruction set LLVM is allowed to generate indirect jumps for
switch statements and for 'goto *rX' assembly. Every such a jump will
be accompanied by necessary metadata, e.g. (`llvm-objdump -Sr ...`):

       0:       r2 = 0x0 ll
                0000000000000030:  R_BPF_64_64  BPF.JT.0.0

Here BPF.JT.1.0 is a symbol residing in the .jumptables section:

    Symbol table:
       4: 0000000000000000   240 OBJECT  GLOBAL DEFAULT     4 BPF.JT.0.0

The -bpf-min-jump-table-entries llvm option may be used to control the
minimal size of a switch which will be converted to an indirect jumps.
