When pahole converts dwarf to btf it emits only used types.
Wrap existing bpf helper functions into typedef and use it in
typecast to make gcc emits this type into dwarf.
Then pahole will convert it to btf.
The "btf_#name_of_helper" types will be used to figure out
types of arguments of bpf helpers.
The generated code before and after is the same.
Only dwarf and btf sections are different.
