Subject: [PATCH bpf-next 1/2] libbpf: Don't take direct pointers into BTF data from st_ops

In struct bpf_struct_ops, we have take a pointer to a BTF type name, and
a struct btf_type. This was presumably done for convenience, but can
actually result in subtle and confusing bugs given that BTF data can be
invalidated before a program is loaded. For example, in sched_ext, we
may sometimes resize a data section after a skeleton has been opened,
but before the struct_ops scheduler map has been loaded. This may cause
the BTF data to be realloc'd, which can then cause a UAF when loading
the program because the struct_ops map has pointers directly into the
BTF data.

We're already storing the BTF type_id in struct bpf_struct_ops. Because
type_id is stable, we can therefore just update the places where we were
looking at those pointers to instead do the lookups we need from the
type_id.

Fixes: 590a00888250 ("bpf: libbpf: Add STRUCT_OPS support")
