Refactor global data map initialization to use anonymous mmap()-ed memory instead of malloc()-ed one. This allows to do a transparent re-mmap()-ing of already existing memory address to point to BPF map's memory after bpf_object__load() step (done in follow up patch). This choreographed setup allows to have a nice and unsurprising way to pre-initialize read-only (and r/w as well) maps by user and after BPF map creation keep working with mmap()-ed contents of this map. All in a way that doesn't require user code to update any pointers: the illusion of working with memory contents is preserved before and after actual BPF map instantiation. Selftests and runqslower example demonstrate this feature in follow up patches.
