Andrii Nakryiko 5327644614 libbpf: Relax check whether BTF is mandatory
If BPF program is using BTF-defined maps, BTF is required only for
libbpf itself to process map definitions. If after that BTF fails to
be loaded into kernel (e.g., if it doesn't support BTF at all), this
shouldn't prevent valid BPF program from loading. Existing
retry-without-BTF logic for creating maps will succeed to create such
maps without any problems. So, presence of .maps section shouldn't make
BTF required for kernel. Update the check accordingly.

Validated by ensuring simple BPF program with BTF-defined maps is still
loaded on old kernel without BTF support and map is correctly parsed and
created.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
