Currently, dumping almost all BTFs specified by id requires
using the -B option to pass the base BTF. For kernel module
BTFs the vmlinux BTF sysfs path should work.
This patch simplifies dumping by ID usage by loading
vmlinux BTF from sysfs as base, if base BTF was not specified
and the ID corresponds to a kernel module BTF.

From v2[0]:
- instead of using vmlinux as base only after the first unsuccessful
attempt, set base to vmlinux before loading in applicable cases, precisely
if no base was provided by user and id belongs to a kernel module BTF.
From v1[1]:
- base BTF is assumed to be vmlinux only for kernel BTFs.

This is not precise. It should be that
dumping all module BTFs specified by id requires using the -B
option. In current situation, to dump a btf associated with
a bpf program, -B option is not needed.

nit: libbpf_get_error() is called twice. Can be consolidated into
one call.

I am not sure whether we want p_err here or not.
The function is to test whether btf is a kernel_module.
If anything wrong happens here. The original logic
follows and an error will be printed out any way.

The same as above, probably we don't need p_err here.

This should work considering current module names but the code itself
doesn't sound right. The characters after "vmlinux" could be arbitrary.
strncmp(btf_name, "vmlinux", strlen("vmlinux") + 1) is better.

Having 'Warning' for p_info seems not appropriate. Similar to other
p_info, you can just remove 'Warning: ".
