libbpf: Resolve enum fwd as full enum64 and vice versa



Changes de-duplication logic for enums in the following way:
- update btf_hash_enum to ignore size and kind fields to get
  ENUM and ENUM64 types in a same hash bucket;
- update btf_compat_enum to consider enum fwd to be compatible with
  full enum64 (and vice versa);

This allows BTF de-duplication in the following case:

    // CU #1
    enum foo;

    struct s {
      enum foo *a;
    } *x;

    // CU #2
    enum foo {
      x = 0xfffffffff // big enough to force enum64
    };

    struct s {
      enum foo *a;
    } *y;

De-duplicated BTF prior to this commit:

    [1] ENUM64 'foo' encoding=UNSIGNED size=8 vlen=1
    	'x' val=68719476735ULL
    [2] INT 'long unsigned int' size=8 bits_offset=0 nr_bits=64
        encoding=(none)
    [3] STRUCT 's' size=8 vlen=1
    	'a' type_id=4 bits_offset=0
    [4] PTR '(anon)' type_id=1
    [5] PTR '(anon)' type_id=3
    [6] STRUCT 's' size=8 vlen=1
    	'a' type_id=8 bits_offset=0
    [7] ENUM 'foo' encoding=UNSIGNED size=4 vlen=0
    [8] PTR '(anon)' type_id=7
    [9] PTR '(anon)' type_id=6

De-duplicated BTF after this commit:

    [1] ENUM64 'foo' encoding=UNSIGNED size=8 vlen=1
    	'x' val=68719476735ULL
    [2] INT 'long unsigned int' size=8 bits_offset=0 nr_bits=64
        encoding=(none)
    [3] STRUCT 's' size=8 vlen=1
    	'a' type_id=4 bits_offset=0
    [4] PTR '(anon)' type_id=1
    [5] PTR '(anon)' type_id=3

Enum forward declarations in C do not provide information about
enumeration values range. Thus the `btf_type->size` field is
meaningless for forward enum declarations. In fact, GCC does not
encode size in DWARF for forward enum declarations
(but dwarves sets enumeration size to a default value of `sizeof(int) * 8`
when size is not specified see dwarf_loader.c:die__create_new_enumeration).
