Add support for global percpu data in libbpf by adding a new ".percpu" section, similar to ".data". It enables efficient handling of percpu global variables in bpf programs. When generating loader for lightweight skeleton, update the percpu_array map used for global percpu data using BPF_F_ALL_CPUS, in order to update values across all CPUs using one value slot. Unlike global data, the mmaped data for global percpu data will be marked as read-only after populating the percpu_array map. Thereafter, users can read those initialized percpu data after loading prog. If they want to update the percpu data after loading prog, they have to update the percpu_array map using key=0 instead.
