bpf: Load vmlinux btf for any struct_ops map
In libbpf, when determining whether we need to load vmlinux btf, we're
currently (among other things) checking whether there is any struct_ops
program present in the object. This works for most realistic struct_ops
maps, as a struct_ops map is of course typically composed of one or more
struct_ops programs. However, that technically need not be the case. A
struct_ops interface could be defined which allows a map to be specified
which one or more non-prog fields, and which provides default behavior
if no struct_ops progs is actually provided otherwise. For sched_ext,
for example, you technically only need to specify the name of the
scheduler in the struct_ops map, with the core scheduler logic providing
default behavior if no prog is actually specified.
If we were to define and try to load such a struct_ops map, we would
crash in libbpf when initializing it as obj->btf_vmlinux will be NULL:

So as to account for such bare-bones struct_ops maps, let's update
obj_needs_vmlinux_btf() to also iterate over an obj's maps and check
whether any of them are struct_ops maps.
