Subject: [PATCH] bcc: support building with external libbpf package and older
 uapi linux/bpf.h

When building bcc with a relatively new packaged libbpf (0.8.1)
and -DCMAKE_USE_LIBBPF_PACKAGE:BOOL=TRUE, multiple compilation
failures are encountered due the fact the system uapi header
in /usr/include/linux/bpf.h is not very recent (this is often
the case for distros, which sync it via a kernel headers
package quite conservatively due to use by glibc).

With libbpf built via git submodule, the uapi header included in
the libbpf package is used, so here a similar approach is proposed
for the external package build.  Instead of having to sync
another file the already present compat/linux/virtual_bpf.h
is used; we copy it to compat/linux/bpf.h (eliminating the
string prefix/suffix on first/last lines).

From there, we ensure that places that assume the presence of
the libbpf git submodule point at compat/ as a location to
find the uapi header.
