Code in btf__parse_raw() fails to detect raw BTF of non-native endianness
and assumes it must be ELF data, which then fails to parse as ELF and
yields a misleading error message:
root:/# bpftool btf dump file /sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux
libbpf: failed to get EHDR from /sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux
For example, this could occur after cross-compiling a BTF-enabled kernel
for a target with non-native endianness, which is currently unsupported.
Check for correct endianness and emit a clearer error message:
root:/# bpftool btf dump file /sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux
libbpf: non-native BTF endianness is not supported

While compiling libbpf, some GCC versions (at least 8.4.0) have difficulty
determining control flow and a emit warning for potentially uninitialized
usage of 'map', which results in a build error if using "-Werror":
In file included from libbpf.c:56:
libbpf.c: In function '__bpf_object__open':
libbpf_internal.h:59:2: warning: 'map' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
libbpf_print(level, "libbpf: " fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__); \
^~~~~~~~~~~~
libbpf.c:5032:18: note: 'map' was declared here
struct bpf_map *map, *targ_map;
^~~
The warning/error is false based on code inspection, so silence it with a
NULL initialization.
