Subject: [PATCH bpf-next] libbpf: bpf__find_by_name[_kind] should use btf__get_nr_types()

When operating on split BTF, btf__find_by_name[_kind] will not
iterate over all types since they use btf->nr_types to show
the number of types to iterate over.  For split BTF this is
the number of types _on top of base BTF_, so it will
underestimate the number of types to iterate over, especially
for vmlinux + module BTF, where the latter is much smaller.

Use btf__get_nr_types() instead.

Fixes: ba451366bf44 ("libbpf: Implement basic split BTF support")
