[PATCH bpf-next v2] libbpf: Don't return -EINVAL if hdr_len < offsetofend(core_relo_len)

[Yuntao Wang]

Since core relos is an optional part of the .BTF.ext ELF section, we should
skip parsing it instead of returning -EINVAL if header size is less than
offsetofend(struct btf_ext_header, core_relo_len).

Fixes: e9fc3ce99b34 ("libbpf: Streamline error reporting for high-level APIs")
