libbpf: fix offsetof() and container_of() to work with CO-RE

It seems like __builtin_offset() doesn't preserve CO-RE field
relocations properly. So if offsetof() macro is defined through
__builtin_offset(), CO-RE-enabled BPF code using container_of() will be
subtly and silently broken.

To avoid this problem, redefine offsetof() and container_of() in the
form that works with CO-RE relocations more reliably.
