libbpf: Render decl_tags in btf_dump

BTF supports arbitrary __attribute__ encoding via decl tags and type
tags [1]. However btf_dump facility only outputs the attributes
encoded in BTF as type tags, which was implemented in commit
2019c58318b8 ("libbpf: Check the kflag of type tags in btf_dump").

BTF_KIND_DECL_TAG has been left out of btf_dump entirely, independent
of the kflag value. An attribute a BTF producer encoded is silently
dropped from the C output.

Implement decl_tag support in btf_dump. The btf_dump limits rendered
BTF types to records, record members and typedefs. Other types,
particularly functions, are deliberately skipped. Therefore decl_tag
rendering works only for the same subset of target types.

To be efficient, decl_tag dump support requires a reverse index from
the target type id to the list of tags pointing at it.

With decl_tag dump support, provided a validly constructed BTF, it is
now possible to obtain C-syntax output like the following example:

	struct foo {
		int a __attribute__((bar));
		int b: 3 __attribute__((bar));
	} __attribute__((bar));
	typedef struct { ... } __attribute__((bar)) foo_t __attribute__((baz));

This closes a generic gap in btf_dump, which silently dropped every
decl tag it was given. The in-tree consumer is:

    bpftool btf dump ... format c

A BPF object now keeps its member tags, such as the "contains:" tags.

v1->v2:
  * index all decl tags in btf_dump (Andrii)
  * roll the decl tag count back on resize errors  (Alexei, sashiko)
  * new patch #3 with the ASSERT_TEXT_EQ() text-comparison helper (Eduard)
  * fold the incremental subtest into test_btf_dump_incremental (Eduard)
  * cut test_btf_attrs down to bare API calls plus VALIDATE_RAW_BTF,
    with no BTF_*_ENC macros (sashiko, Eduard)
