These are based on definitions added to binutils' libctf. Specifically:
- Type IDs are now encoded in 32 bits rather than 16, changing the
layout of ctf_type_t, ctf_array_t, ctf_member_t and ctf_lmember_t.
- Type info is encoded in 32 bits rather than 16. The type "kind" is
kept to 5 bits, and the type "vlen" (which typically encodes the
size of an instance of the type) is extended from 10 bits to 26.
The main upside is that we remove the current limit of 2^{16-1} distinct
types in the main kernel executable imposed by CTFv2. Other limits,
such as that on the number of elements in an enum, imposed by the vlen
limit, are also raised.
This change adds v2 and v3 flavours of macros and type definitions which
differ between the two versions. Compatibility is preserved for now by
having generic names refer to the v2 definitions, so, e.g., ctf_type_t
is still a v2 type.
No functional change intended.
