libbpf: mark bpf_iter_num_{new,next,destroy} as __weak

Mark bpf_iter_num_{new,next,destroy}() kfuncs declared for
bpf_for()/bpf_repeat() macros as __weak to allow users to feature-detect
their presence and guard bpf_for()/bpf_repeat() loops accordingly for
backwards compatibility with old kernels.

Now that libbpf supports kfunc calls poisoning and better reporting of
unresolved (but called) kfuncs, declaring number iterator kfuncs in
bpf_helpers.h won't degrade user experience and won't cause unnecessary
kernel feature dependencies.
