libbpf: Support symbol versioning for uprobe

In current implementation, we assume that symbol found in .dynsym section
would have a version suffix and use it to compare with symbol user supplied.
According to the spec ([0]), this assumption is incorrect, the version info
of dynamic symbols are stored in .gnu.version and .gnu.version_d sections
of ELF objects. For example:

    $ nm -D /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 | grep rwlock_wrlock
    000000000009b1a0 T __pthread_rwlock_wrlock@GLIBC_2.2.5
    000000000009b1a0 T pthread_rwlock_wrlock@@GLIBC_2.34
    000000000009b1a0 T pthread_rwlock_wrlock@GLIBC_2.2.5

    $ readelf -W --dyn-syms /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 | grep rwlock_wrlock
      706: 000000000009b1a0   878 FUNC    GLOBAL DEFAULT   15 __pthread_rwlock_wrlock@GLIBC_2.2.5
      2568: 000000000009b1a0   878 FUNC    GLOBAL DEFAULT   15 pthread_rwlock_wrlock@@GLIBC_2.34
      2571: 000000000009b1a0   878 FUNC    GLOBAL DEFAULT   15 pthread_rwlock_wrlock@GLIBC_2.2.5

In this case, specify pthread_rwlock_wrlock@@GLIBC_2.34 or
pthread_rwlock_wrlock@GLIBC_2.2.5 in bpf_uprobe_opts::func_name won't work.
Because the qualified name does NOT match `pthread_rwlock_wrlock` (without
version suffix) in .dynsym sections.

This commit implements the symbol versioning for dynsym and allows user to
specify symbol in the following forms:
  - func
  - func@LIB_VERSION
  - func@@LIB_VERSION

In case of symbol conflicts, error out and users should resolve it by
specifying a qualified name.
