Subject: [PATCH bpf] libbpf: Fix compile error in libbpf_attach_type_by_name

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo reported build error in libbpf when clang
version 3.8.1-24 (tags/RELEASE_381/final) is used:

libbpf.c:2201:36: error: comparison of constant -22 with expression of
type 'const enum bpf_attach_type' is always false
[-Werror,-Wtautological-constant-out-of-range-compare]
                if (section_names[i].attach_type == -EINVAL)
                    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^  ~~~~~~~
1 error generated.

Fix the error by keeping "is_attachable" property of a program in a
separate struct field instead of trying to use attach_type itself.

Fixes: commit 956b620fcf0b ("libbpf: Introduce libbpf_attach_type_by_name")
