Before this patch, btf_new() was liable to close an arbitrary FD 0 if
BTF parsing failed. This was because:
* btf->fd was initialized to 0 through the calloc()
* btf__free() (in the `done` label) closed any FDs >= 0
* btf->fd is left at 0 if parsing fails
This issue was discovered on a system using libbpf v0.3 (without
BTF_KIND_FLOAT support) but with a kernel that had BTF_KIND_FLOAT types
in BTF. Thus, parsing fails.
While this patch technically doesn't fix any issues b/c upstream libbpf
has BTF_KIND_FLOAT support, it'll help prevent issues in the future if
more BTF types are added. It also allow the fix to be backported to
older libbpf's.

Add a selftest to test:
* default bpf_read_branch_records() behavior
* BPF_F_GET_BRANCH_RECORDS_SIZE flag behavior
* error path on non branch record perf events
* using helper to write to stack
* using helper to write to global
On host with hardware counter support:
# ./test_progs -t perf_branches
#27/1 perf_branches_hw:OK
#27/2 perf_branches_no_hw:OK
#27 perf_branches:OK
Summary: 1/2 PASSED, 0 SKIPPED, 0 FAILED
On host without hardware counter support (VM):
# ./test_progs -t perf_branches
#27/1 perf_branches_hw:OK
#27/2 perf_branches_no_hw:OK
#27 perf_branches:OK
Summary: 1/2 PASSED, 1 SKIPPED, 0 FAILED
