tools: bpftool: try to mount bpffs if required for pinning objects
One possible cause of failure for `bpftool {prog|map} pin * file FILE` is the FILE not being in an eBPF virtual file system (bpffs). In this case, make bpftool attempt to mount bpffs on the parent directory of the FILE. Then, if this operation is successful, try again to pin the object. The code for mnt_bpffs() is a copy of function bpf_mnt_fs() from iproute2 package (under lib/bpf.c, taken at commit 4b73d52f8a81), with modifications regarding handling of error messages.
