generalize the "seq_show" seq file support in btf.c to support a generic show callback of which we support two instances; the current seq file show, and a show with snprintf() behaviour which instead writes the type data to a supplied string. Both classes of show function call btf_type_show() with different targets; the seq file or the string to be written. In the string case we need to track additional data - length left in string to write and length to return that we would have written (a la snprintf). By default show will display type information, field members and their types and values etc, and the information is indented based upon structure depth. Zeroed fields are omitted. Show however supports flags which modify its behaviour: BTF_SHOW_COMPACT - suppress newline/indent. BTF_SHOW_NONAME - suppress show of type and member names. BTF_SHOW_PTR_RAW - do not obfuscate pointer values. BTF_SHOW_UNSAFE - do not copy data to safe buffer before display. BTF_SHOW_ZERO - show zeroed values (by default they are not shown).

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
