Andrii Nakryiko df3153758d libbpf: fix -Wformat warnings from format/argument type mismatches
Building libbpf with -Wall (as happens via bpftool's bootstrap build)
surfaces ~120 -Wformat warnings where pr_warn/pr_debug format specifiers
don't match their argument types: %d for __u32/Elf64_Word, %u for signed
ints, %zd for size_t, %ld for unsigned long, and %x/%lx/%llx applied to
signed values.

Match each specifier to its argument's type where a correctly-signed
specifier exists (%d<->%u, %ld->%lu, %zd->%zu). For hex conversions,
which have no signed form, cast the argument instead (%x->(unsigned),
%lx->(unsigned long), %llx->(unsigned long long)). No functional change.

Note, the fdinfo map_flags sscanf used %i into a __u32 *, which warns.
The kernel prints map_flags as hex ("map_flags:\t%#x\n" in
bpf_map_show_fdinfo(), unchanged since the field was added to fdinfo), so
switch the conversion to %x: it parses the 0x-prefixed value and expects
unsigned int *, matching the destination, so the warning is gone with no
cast.
