[PATCH v5 3/9] tracing/probes: Add a function to search a member of a struct/union

[Masami Hiramatsu (Google)]

From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx>

Add btf_find_struct_member() API to search a member of a given data structure
or union from the member's name.

 Changes in v3:
  - Remove simple input check.
  - Fix unneeded IS_ERR_OR_NULL() check for btf_type_by_id().
  - Move the code next to btf_get_func_param().
  - Use for_each_member() macro instead of for-loop.
  - Use btf_type_skip_modifiers() instead of btf_type_by_id().
 Changes in v4:
  - Use a stack for searching in anonymous members instead of nested call.
 Changes in v5:
  - Move the generic functions into a new file, trace_btf.c, for avoiding
    tree-merge conflict.
  - Return anon_offset for calculating correct offset from root struct.
