bpf tools: Add bpf.c/h for common bpf operations

This patch introduces bpf.c and bpf.h, which hold common functions
issuing bpf syscall. The goal of these two files is to hide syscall
completely from user. Note that bpf.c and bpf.h deal with kernel
interface only. Things like structure of 'map' section in the ELF object
is not cared by of bpf.[ch].

We first introduce bpf_create_map().

Note that, since functions in bpf.[ch] are wrapper of sys_bpf, they
don't use OO style naming.
