tracing/probes: Support BTF argument on module functions

Browse source 
Since the btf returned from bpf_get_btf_vmlinux() only covers functions in
the vmlinux, BTF argument is not available on the functions in the modules.
Use bpf_find_btf_id() instead of bpf_get_btf_vmlinux()+btf_find_name_kind()
so that BTF argument can find the correct struct btf and btf_type in it.
With this fix, fprobe events can use `$arg*` on module functions as below

 # grep nf_log_ip_packet /proc/kallsyms
ffffffffa0005c00 t nf_log_ip_packet	[nf_log_syslog]
ffffffffa0005bf0 t __pfx_nf_log_ip_packet	[nf_log_syslog]
 # echo 'f nf_log_ip_packet $arg*' > dynamic_events
 # cat dynamic_events
f:fprobes/nf_log_ip_packet__entry nf_log_ip_packet net=net pf=pf hooknum=hooknum skb=skb in=in out=out loginfo=loginfo prefix=prefix

To support the module's btf which is removable, the struct btf needs to be
ref-counted. So this also records the btf in the traceprobe_parse_context
and returns the refcount when the parse has done.
