That's a really good point. I stumbled on the same problem when writing a BTF
PoC in Go. Doesn't this mean that libbpf itself suffers from this
problem as well?
If I upgrade my clang, it might emit BTF that libbpf can't understand, and we're
back to square one.

Would it be possible to add such type_length to the format?
