Ideally yes, the main section should always be called
flow_dissector (to not break libbpf_prog_type_by_name assumptions).

We can call bpftool with and without the ATTACH_TYPE argument:

1. when 'type flow_dissector' is specified, we try to find section called
  'flow_dissector' and assume, that's the main prog (libbpf_prog_type_by_name)
2. when 'type flow_dissector' is _not_ specified, we try to detect
  program type from the first section

This check here is for the cases where first section is not
flow_dissector (but some tail call) and we want to force proper type.

I don't think it works actually. I also assumed that initially, but as
you can see from the patch, I had to loop over the programs and set
correct type. Current implementation will fail if you have two progs
in the same obj AFAICT.

They remain loaded. I agree, we should go back to the clean state;
that probably should be achieved by adding proper cleanup to libbpf's
bpf_object__pin when it fails. I can look into that for v2.

(See above for loading multiple progs from the same object).

If we want to be able to load non-flow_dissector programs from the same file,
we should have some way to distinguish between flow_dissector and
non-flow_dissector ones; I don't see an easy way to do that.
