Subject: [PATCH iproute2] bpf: check map symbol type properly with newer llvm compiler
With llvm 7.0 or earlier, the map symbol type is STT_NOTYPE.
  -bash-4.4$ cat t.c
  __attribute__((section("maps"))) int g;
  -bash-4.4$ clang -target bpf -O2 -c t.c
  -bash-4.4$ readelf -s t.o
  Symbol table '.symtab' contains 2 entries:
     Num:    Value          Size Type    Bind   Vis      Ndx Name
       0: 0000000000000000     0 NOTYPE  LOCAL  DEFAULT  UND
       1: 0000000000000000     0 NOTYPE  GLOBAL DEFAULT    3 g
  -bash-4.4$
The following llvm commit enables BPF target to generate
proper symbol type and size.

      [bpf] Symbol sizes and types in object file
      Clang-compiled object files currently don't include the symbol sizes and
      types.  Some tools however need that information.  For example, ctfconvert
      uses that information to generate FreeBSD's CTF representation from ELF
      files.
      With this patch, symbol sizes and types are included in object files.

Hence, for llvm 8.0.0 (currently trunk), symbol type will be not NOTYPE, but OBJECT.
  -bash-4.4$ clang -target bpf -O2 -c t.c
  -bash-4.4$ readelf -s t.o
  Symbol table '.symtab' contains 3 entries:
     Num:    Value          Size Type    Bind   Vis      Ndx Name
       0: 0000000000000000     0 NOTYPE  LOCAL  DEFAULT  UND
       1: 0000000000000000     0 FILE    LOCAL  DEFAULT  ABS t.c
       2: 0000000000000000     4 OBJECT  GLOBAL DEFAULT    3 g
-bash-4.4$
This patch makes sure bpf library accepts both NOTYPE and OBJECT types
of global map symbols.
