One possible cause of failure for `bpftool {prog|map} pin * file FILE`
is the FILE not being in an eBPF virtual file system (bpffs). In this
case, make bpftool attempt to mount bpffs on the parent directory of the
FILE. Then, if this operation is successful, try again to pin the
object.
The code for mnt_bpffs() is a copy of function bpf_mnt_fs() from
iproute2 package (under lib/bpf.c, taken at commit 4b73d52f8a81), with
modifications regarding handling of error messages.

Update the documentation to provide help about JSON output generation,
and add an example in bpftool-prog manual page.
Also reintroduce an example that was left aside when the tool was moved
from GitHub to the kernel sources, in order to show how to mount the
bpffs file system (to pin programs) inside the bpftool-prog manual page.

Turn err() and info() macros into functions.
In order to avoid naming conflicts with variables in the code, rename
them as p_err() and p_info() respectively.
The behavior of these functions is similar to the one of the macros for
plain output. However, when JSON output is requested, these macros
return a JSON-formatted "error" object instead of printing a message to
stderr.
To handle error messages correctly with JSON, a modification was brought
to their behavior nonetheless: the functions now append a end-of-line
character at the end of the message. This way, we can remove end-of-line
characters at the end of the argument strings, and not have them in the
JSON output.
All error messages are formatted to hold in a single call to p_err(), in
order to produce a single JSON field.

These two options can be used to ask for a JSON output (--j or -json),
and to make this JSON human-readable (-p or --pretty).
A json_writer object is created when JSON is required, and will be used
in follow-up commits to produce JSON output.
Note that --pretty implies --json.
Update for the manual pages and interactive help messages comes in a
later patch of the series.

Make print_hex() able to print to any file instead of standard output
only, and rename it to fprint_hex(). The function can now be called with
the info() macro, for example, without splitting the output between
standard and error outputs.

Program tag is usually displayed as string of bytes without
any separators (e.g. as "aa5520b1090cfeb6" vs MAC addr-like
format bpftool uses currently: "aa:55:20:b1:09:0c:fe:b6").
Make bptfool use the more common format both for displaying
the tag and selecting the program by tag.
This was pointed out in review but I misunderstood the comment.
