libbpf: Fix a couple of missed btf_type_tag handling in btf.c
Commit 2dc1e488e5cd ("libbpf: Support BTF_KIND_TYPE_TAG") added the BTF_KIND_TYPE_TAG support. But to test vmlinux build with ... #define __user __attribute__((btf_type_tag("user"))) ... I needed to sync libbpf repo and manually copy libbpf sources to pahole. To simplify process, I used BTF_KIND_RESTRICT to simulate the BTF_KIND_TYPE_TAG with vmlinux build as "restrict" modifier is barely used in kernel. But this approach missed one case in dedup with structures where BTF_KIND_RESTRICT is handled and BTF_KIND_TYPE_TAG is not handled in btf_dedup_is_equiv(), and this will result in a pahole dedup failure. This patch fixed this issue and a selftest is added in the subsequent patch to test this scenario. The other missed handling is in btf__resolve_size(). Currently the compiler always emit like PTR->TYPE_TAG->... so in practice we don't hit the missing BTF_KIND_TYPE_TAG handling issue with compiler generated code. But lets add case BTF_KIND_TYPE_TAG in the switch statement to be future proof.
