bpf: Generate BTF_KIND_FLOAT when linking vmlinux

pahole v1.21 supports the --btf_gen_floats flag, which makes it
generate the information about the floating-point types [1].

Adjust link-vmlinux.sh to pass this flag to pahole in case it's
supported, which is determined using a simple version check.
