libbpf: Do not use __builtin_offsetof for offsetof

Commit 5fbc220862 ("tools/libpf: Add offsetof/container_of macro
in bpf_helpers.h") added a macro offsetof() to get the offset of a
structure member:

   #define offsetof(TYPE, MEMBER)  ((size_t)&((TYPE *)0)->MEMBER)

In certain use cases, size_t type may not be available so
Commit da7a35062b ("libbpf bpf_helpers: Use __builtin_offsetof
for offsetof") changed to use __builtin_offsetof which removed
the dependency on type size_t, which I suggested.

But using __builtin_offsetof will prevent CO-RE relocation
generation in case that, e.g., TYPE is annotated with "preserve_access_info"
where a relocation is desirable in case the member offset is changed
in a different kernel version. So this patch reverted back to
the original macro but using "unsigned long" instead of "site_t".
