libbpf: Avoid joining .BTF.ext data with BPF programs by section name

Instead of using ELF section names as a joining key between .BTF.ext and
corresponding BPF programs, pre-build .BTF.ext section number to ELF
section index mapping during bpf_object__open() and use it later for
matching .BTF.ext information (func/line info or CO-RE relocations) to
their respective BPF programs and subprograms.

This simplifies corresponding joining logic and let's libbpf do
manipulations with BPF program's ELF sections like dropping leading '?'
character for non-autoloaded programs. Original joining logic in
bpf_object__relocate_core() (see relevant comment that's now removed)
was never elegant, so it's a good improvement regardless. But it also
avoids unnecessary internal assumptions about preserving original ELF
section name as BPF program's section name (which was broken when
SEC("?abc") support was added).

Fixes: a3820c481112 ("libbpf: Support opting out from autoloading BPF programs declaratively")
