To support dynamic compiling, this patch allows caller to pass a
in-memory buffer to libbpf by bpf_object__open_buffer(). libbpf
calls elf_memory() to open it as ELF object file.
Because __bpf_object__open() collects all required data and won't need
that buffer anymore, libbpf uses that buffer directly instead of clone
a new buffer. Caller of libbpf can free that buffer or use it do other
things after bpf_object__open_buffer() return.
