This worked only because LIBBPF_INTERNAL_HDRS is a single element list
right now. I didn't touch it for now, but please follow up with a
proper fix (you'd need to do % magic here)

the whole $(LIBBPF_INCLUDE)/bpf/$(LIBBPF_INTERNAL_HDRS) use in
multiple places might benefit from having a dedicated variable
