still think it's better be done from map definition parsing code
instead of a separate path, which will ignore most of maps anyways (of
course by extracting this whole buffer creation logic into a
function).

nit: this should fit on single line?

If map was pinned by older version of the same app, key and value type
id are probably gonna be different, even if the type definition itself
it correct. We probably shouldn't check that?

pin_maps should take into account opts->auto_pin_path, shouldn't it?
Which is why I also think that auto_pin_path is bad name, because it's
not only for auto-pinning, it's a pinning root path, so something like
pin_root_path or just pin_root is better and less misleading name.
