perf bpf: Add bpf.h to be used in eBPF proggies

So, the first helper is the one shortening a variable/function section
attribute, from, for instance:

char _license[] __attribute__((section("license"), used)) = "GPL";

to:

char _license[] SEC("license") = "GPL";

Convert empty.c to that and it becomes:

# cat ~acme/lib/examples/perf/bpf/empty.c
#include <bpf.h>

char _license[] SEC("license") = "GPL";
int _version SEC("version") = LINUX_VERSION_CODE;
