libbpf: Ensure that BPF syscall fds are never 0, 1, or 2

Add a simple wrapper for passing an fd and getting a new one >= 3 if it
is one of 0, 1, or 2. There are two primary reasons to make this change:
First, libbpf relies on the assumption a certain BPF fd is never 0 (e.g.
most recently noticed in [0]). Second, Alexei pointed out in [1] that
some environments reset stdin, stdout, and stderr if they notice an
invalid fd at these numbers. To protect against both these cases, switch
all internal BPF syscall wrappers in libbpf to always return an fd >= 3.
We only need to modify the syscall wrappers and not other code that
assumes a valid fd by doing >= 0, to avoid pointless churn, and because
it is still a valid assumption. The cost paid is two additional syscalls
if fd is in range [0, 2].
