Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v3 0/2] libbpf: Introduce 'btf_custom_path' to 'bpf_obj_open_opts'

----------

v2->v3:
--- Load the BTF specified by btf_custom_path to btf_vmlinux_override 
    instead of btf_bmlinux.
--- Fix the memory leak that may be introduced by the second version 
    of the patch.
--- Add a new patch to fix the possible memory leak caused by 
    obj->kconfig.

v1->v2:
-- Change custom_btf_path to btf_custom_path.
-- If the length of btf_custom_path of bpf_obj_open_opts is too long, 
   return ERR_PTR(-ENAMETOOLONG).
-- Add `custom BTF is in addition to vmlinux BTF`
   with btf_custom_path field.
