Adjust feature probing callbacks to take into account optional token_fd. In unprivileged contexts, some feature detectors would fail to detect kernel support just because BPF program, BPF map, or BTF object can't be loaded due to privileged nature of those operations. So when BPF object is loaded with BPF token, this token should be used for feature probing. This patch is setting support for this scenario, but we don't yet pass non-zero token FD. This will be added in the next patch. We also switched BPF cookie detector from using kprobe program to tracepoint one, as tracepoint is somewhat less dangerous BPF program type and has higher likelihood of being allowed through BPF token in the future. This change has no effect on detection behavior.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
