Ensure that there can be no ownership cycles among different types by way of having owning objects that can hold some other type as their element. For instance, a map value can only hold local kptrs, but these are allowed to have another bpf_list_head. To prevent unbounded recursion while freeing resources, elements of bpf_list_head in local kptrs can never have a bpf_list_head which are part of list in a map value. Later patches will verify this by having dedicated BTF selftests. Also, to make runtime destruction easier, once btf_struct_metas is fully populated, we can stash the metadata of the value type directly in the metadata of the list_head fields, as that allows easier access to the value type's layout to destruct it at runtime from the btf_field entry of the list head itself.
