hi,
sending the change to store and dump the license
info for loaded BPF programs. It's important for
us get the license info, when investigating on
screwed up machine.

v2 changes:
- dumping only the GPL compatible bool, without
storing the whole license string

Adding change to bpftool to dump the license GPL
compatible info via:

# bpftool prog list
3: kprobe name func_begin tag 57cd311f2e27366b license GPL NON compatible
loaded_at Apr 25/11:20 uid 0
xlated 16B not jited memlock 4096B

# bpftool prog list
4: kprobe name func_begin tag 57cd311f2e27366b license GPL compatible
loaded_at Apr 25/11:20 uid 0
xlated 16B not jited memlock 4096B

# bpftool prog show --json
[{"id":3,"type":"kprobe","name":"func ... ,"gpl_compatible":false,"loade...
