perf bpf: Check relocation target section
Libbpf should check the target section before doing relocation to ensure the relocation is correct. If not, a bug in LLVM causes an error. See [1]. Also, if an incorrect BPF script uses both global variable and map, global variable whould be treated as map and be relocated without error. This patch saves the id of the map section into obj->efile and compare target section of a relocation symbol against it during relocation. Previous patch introduces a test case about this problem.
