bpf: Add generic support for lookup batch op

This commit introduces generic support for the bpf_map_lookup_batch.
This implementation can be used by almost all the bpf maps since its core
implementation is relying on the existing map_get_next_key and
map_lookup_elem. The bpf syscall subcommand introduced is:

  BPF_MAP_LOOKUP_BATCH

The UAPI attribute is:

  struct { /* struct used by BPF_MAP_*_BATCH commands */
         __aligned_u64   in_batch;       /* start batch,
                                          * NULL to start from beginning
                                          */
         __aligned_u64   out_batch;      /* output: next start batch */
         __aligned_u64   keys;
         __aligned_u64   values;
         __u32           count;          /* input/output:
                                          * input: # of key/value
                                          * elements
                                          * output: # of filled elements
                                          */
         __u32           map_fd;
         __u64           elem_flags;
         __u64           flags;
  } batch;

in_batch/out_batch are opaque values use to communicate between
user/kernel space, in_batch/out_batch must be of key_size length.

To start iterating from the beginning in_batch must be null,
count is the # of key/value elements to retrieve. Note that the 'keys'
buffer must be a buffer of key_size * count size and the 'values' buffer
must be value_size * count, where value_size must be aligned to 8 bytes
by userspace if it's dealing with percpu maps. 'count' will contain the
number of keys/values successfully retrieved. Note that 'count' is an
input/output variable and it can contain a lower value after a call.

If there's no more entries to retrieve, ENOENT will be returned. If error
is ENOENT, count might be > 0 in case it copied some values but there were
no more entries to retrieve.

Note that if the return code is an error and not -EFAULT,
count indicates the number of elements successfully processed.
