This patch series implements emitting appropriate BTF type tags for
argument and return types of kfuncs marked with KF_ARENA_* flags.

For additional context see the description of BPF patch
"bpf: define KF_ARENA_* flags for bpf_arena kfuncs" [1].

The feature depends on recent changes in libbpf [2].

[2] https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20250130201239.1429648-1-ihor.solodrai@linux.dev/

v1->v2:
  * Rewrite patch #1 refactoring btf_encoder__tag_kfuncs(): now the
    post-processing step is removed entirely, and kfuncs are tagged in
    btf_encoder__add_func().
  * Nits and renames in patch #2
  * Add patch #4 editing man pages

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/dwarves/20250207021442.155703-1-ihor.solodrai@linux.dev/

Ihor Solodrai (4):
  btf_encoder: refactor btf_encoder__tag_kfuncs()
  btf_encoder: emit type tags for bpf_arena pointers
  pahole: introduce --btf_feature=attributes
  man-pages: describe attributes and remove reproducible_build
