libbpf: Extend linker API to support in-memory ELF files

The new_fd and add_fd functions correspond to the original new and
add_file functions, but accept an FD instead of a file name. This
gives API consumers the option of using anonymous files/memfds to
avoid writing ELFs to disk.

This new API will be useful for performing linking as part of
bpftrace's JIT compilation.

The add_buf function is a convenience wrapper that does the work of
creating a memfd for the caller.
