    btf: emit linkage information in BTF_KIND_FUNC entries

    The kernel bpftool expects BTF_KIND_FUNC entries in BTF to include an
    annotation reflecting the linkage of functions (static, global).  For
    whatever reason they abuse the `vlen' field of the BTF_KIND_FUNC entry
    instead of adding a variable-part to the record like it is done with
    other entry kinds.

    This patch makes GCC to include this linkage info in BTF_KIND_FUNC
    entries.

    Tested in bpf-unknown-none target.

    gcc/ChangeLog:

            PR debug/106263
            * ctfc.h (struct ctf_dtdef): Add field linkage.
            * ctfc.cc (ctf_add_function): Set ctti_linkage.
            * dwarf2ctf.cc (gen_ctf_function_type): Pass a linkage for
            function types and subprograms.
            * btfout.cc (btf_asm_func_type): Emit linkage information for the
            function.
            (btf_dtd_emit_preprocess_cb): Propagate the linkage information
            for functions.
