Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/2] Add btf__permute API

From: Donglin Peng <pengdonglin@...omi.com>

This patch adds btf__permute() function that reorganizes BTF types according
to a provided ID mapping array, updating all internal type references to
maintain consistency after permutation.

The API enables custom BTF type layouts for specialized use cases such as
BTF sorting optimizations.

This series is extracted from the previous patch set:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20251106131956.1222864-1-dolinux.peng@gmail.com/

Key difference: this implementation adopts the ID mapping approach
suggested by Andrii Nakryiko.
