Subject: [PATCH] tools/resolve_btfids: Fix 'variable' may be used uninitialized warnings

- tools/bpf/resolve_btfids/main.c: Initialize 'set' and 'set8' pointers
  to NULL in to fix compiler warnings.

- tools/lib/bpf/btf_dump.c: Initialize 'new_off' and 'pad_bits' to 0 and
  'pad_type' to  NULL to prevent compiler warnings.

- tools/lib/subcmd/parse-options.c: Initiazlide pointer 'o' to NULL
  avoiding a compiler warning.

Tested on x86_64 with clang version 17.0.6 and gcc (GCC) 13.3.1.

$ cd tools/bpf/resolve_btfids
$ for c in gcc clang; do \
for o in fast g s z $(seq 0 3); do \
make clean && \
make HOST_CC=${c} "HOSTCFLAGS=-O${o} -Wall" 2>&1 | tee ${c}-O${o}.out; \
done; done && grep 'warning:\|error:' *.out
