ah, I see. Yeah, either we can add an option to resolve_btfids to not
error when .BTF_ids is missing (probably best), or we can check
whether the test has .BTF_ids section, and if it does - run
resolve_btfids on it. Just ignoring errors always is more error-prone,
because we won't know if it's a real problem we are ignoring, or
missing .BTF_ids.

"VMLINUX_BTF is there" is not really true in a lot of more complicated
setups, which is why I'd like to avoid that assumption. E.g., for
libbpf Travis CI, we build self-tests in one VM, but run the binary in
a different VM. So either vmlinux itself or the path to it might
change.

Also, having full control over **small** BTF allows to create various
test situations that might be harder to pinpoint in real vmlinux BTF,
e.g., same-named entities with different KINDS (typedef vs struct,
etc). Then if that fails, debugging this on a small BTF is much-much
easier than on a real thing. Real vmlinux BTF is being tested each
time you build a kernel and run selftests inside VM either way, so I
don't think we lose anything in terms of coverage.
