libbpf: Add gating for arena globals relocation feature

Add feature gating for the arena globals relocation introduced in
commit c1f61171d4. The commit depends on a previous commit in the
same patchset that is absent from older kernels
(12a1fe6e12 "bpf/verifier: Do not limit maximum direct offset into arena map").

Without this commit, arena globals relocation with arenas >= 512MiB
fails to load and breaks libbpf's backwards compatibility.

Introduce a libbpf feature to check whether the running kernel allows for
full range ldimm64 offset, and only relocate arena globals if it does.

Fixes: c1f61171d4 ("libbpf: Move arena globals to the end of the arena")
