bpf, docs: Fix ordering of bpf documentation

This commit fixes the display of the BPF documentation in the sidebar
when rendered as HTML.

Before this patch, the sidebar would render as follows for some
sections:

| BPF Documentation
|- BPF Type Format (BTF)
|- BPF Type Format (BTF)

This was due to creating a heading in index.rst followed by
a sphinx toctree, where the file referenced carries the same
title as the section heading.

To fix this I applied a pattern that has been established in other
subfolders of Documentation:

1. Re-wrote index.rst to have a single toctree
2. Split the sections out in to their own files

Additionally maps.rst and programs.rst make use of a glob pattern to
include map_* or prog_* rst files in their toctree, meaning future map
or program type documentation will be automatically included.

7) Add a document to help clarifying BPF licensing, from Alexei Starovoitov.

8) Fix skel_internal.h to propagate errno if the loader indicates an internal
error, from Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi.

9) Fix build warnings with -Wcast-function-type so that the option can later

10) Fix libbpf to ignore STT_SECTION symbols in legacy map definitions as it
otherwise errors out when encountering them, from Toke Høiland-Jørgensen.

11) Teach libbpf to recognize specialized maps (such as for perf RB) and
internally remove BTF type IDs when creating them, from Hengqi Chen.

12) Various fixes and improvements to BPF selftests.
