libbpf: Render decl_tags in btf_dump

BTF_KIND_DECL_TAG is an attribute on a declaration: with kind_flag=0
the tag name is the argument of a btf_decl_tag(), and with kind_flag=1
it encodes a complete __attribute__.

When doing btf_dump, render both forms at every declaration btf_dump
emits - a record, a record member and a typedef:

	struct foo { ... } __attribute__((bar));
	struct foo { int a __attribute__((bar)); };
	typedef struct { ... } __attribute__((bar)) foo_t;

A decl tag is a standalone type pointing at its target. Build an
index of decl tags in btf_dump_resize(). Keep it as a flat array
sorted by (target ID, tag ID). This allows for a stable emission order
in btf_dump_emit_decl_tags().

btf_dump_emit_decl_tags() binary searches for where the target's
entries would begin and walks tags while the target matches. A record
shares its target with its members, so the component_idx is matched
there.

A record attribute goes after the closing brace, where
__attribute__((packed)) already goes. A member attribute goes after
the bit-field width: clang rejects one between the declarator and the
':'. A typedef takes it after the declarator, so a typedef of an
anonymous record can carry two groups at once, one binding to the
record and one to the typedef.

This closes a generic gap in btf_dump, which silently dropped every
decl tag it was given.
