Yafang Shao 1b715e1b0e bpf: Support ->fill_link_info for perf_event
By introducing support for ->fill_link_info to the perf_event link, users
gain the ability to inspect it using `bpftool link show`. While the current
approach involves accessing this information via `bpftool perf show`,
consolidating link information for all link types in one place offers
greater convenience. Additionally, this patch extends support to the
generic perf event, which is not currently accommodated by
`bpftool perf show`. While only the perf type and config are exposed to
userspace, other attributes such as sample_period and sample_freq are
ignored. It's important to note that if kptr_restrict is not permitted, the
probed address will not be exposed, maintaining security measures.

A new enum bpf_perf_event_type is introduced to help the user understand
which struct is relevant.
