libbpf: Support pre-initializing .bss global variables
Remove invalid assumption in libbpf that .bss map doesn't have to be updated
in kernel. With addition of skeleton and memory-mapped initialization image,
.bss doesn't have to be all zeroes when BPF map is created, because user-code
might have initialized those variables from user-space.
Fixes: eba9c5f498a1 ("libbpf: Refactor global data map initialization")
