Andrii Nakryiko 4b443bc178 libbpf: Don't validate TYPE_ID relo's original imm value
During linking, type IDs in the resulting linked BPF object file can
change, and so ldimm64 instructions corresponding to
BPF_CORE_TYPE_ID_TARGET and BPF_CORE_TYPE_ID_LOCAL CO-RE relos can get
their imm value out of sync with actual CO-RE relocation information
that's updated by BPF linker properly during linking process.

We could teach BPF linker to adjust such instructions, but it feels
a bit too much for linker to re-implement good chunk of
bpf_core_patch_insns logic just for this. This is a redundant safety
check for TYPE_ID relocations, as the real validation is in matching
CO-RE specs, so if that works fine, it's very unlikely that there is
something wrong with the instruction itself.

So, instead, teach libbpf (and kernel) to ignore insn->imm for
BPF_CORE_TYPE_ID_TARGET and BPF_CORE_TYPE_ID_LOCAL relos.
