I think the overhead is really minimal and we can improve later on if we want.

It's always type_id. Renamed it.

It's an optimization we do, we don't follow the pointer here because
it is possible that the definition of the pointed type is not needed.
For instance, a relocation like:
BPF_CORE_READ(task, nsproxy);
will generate this:
[1] STRUCT 'task_struct' size=9472 vlen=1
'nsproxy' type_id=2 bits_offset=23040
[2] PTR '(anon)' type_id=0
struct nsproxy is not really accessed, so we don't need it's
definition. On the other hand, something like
BPF_CORE_READ(task, nsproxy, count);
has two relocations, and nsproxy is actually accessed, so in this case
the generated BTF includes a nsproxy struct:
[1] STRUCT '(anon)' size=4 vlen=0
[2] TYPEDEF 'atomic_t' type_id=1
[3] STRUCT 'task_struct' size=9472 vlen=1
'nsproxy' type_id=4 bits_offset=23040
[4] PTR '(anon)' type_id=5
[5] STRUCT 'nsproxy' size=72 vlen=1
'count' type_id=2 bits_offset=0
