This commit replaces separate headers with a single vmlinux.h to
tracing programs. Thanks to that, we no longer need to define the
argument structure for tracing programs directly. For example, argument
for the sched_switch tracpepoint (sched_switch_args) can be replaced
with the vmlinux.h provided trace_event_raw_sched_switch.
Additional defines have been added to the BPF program either directly
or through the inclusion of net_shared.h. Defined values are
PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH, IFNAMSIZ constants and __stringify() macro. This
change enables the BPF program to access internal structures with BTF
generated "vmlinux.h" header.

The canonical location for the tracefs filesystem is at /sys/kernel/tracing.
But, from Documentation/trace/ftrace.rst:
Before 4.1, all ftrace tracing control files were within the debugfs
file system, which is typically located at /sys/kernel/debug/tracing.
For backward compatibility, when mounting the debugfs file system,
the tracefs file system will be automatically mounted at:
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing
Many comments and samples in the bpf code still refer to this older
debugfs path, so let's update them to avoid confusion. There are a few
spots where the bpf code explicitly checks both tracefs and debugfs
(tools/bpf/bpftool/tracelog.c and tools/lib/api/fs/fs.c) and I've left
those alone so that the tools can continue to work with both paths.

This commit changes the _kern suffix to .bpf with the BPF test programs.
With this modification, test programs will inherit the benefit of the
new CLANG-BPF compile target.
