Xu Kuohai 4226961b00 libbpf: Skip forward declaration when counting duplicated type names
Currently if a declaration appears in the BTF before the definition, the
definition is dumped as a conflicting name, e.g.:

    $ bpftool btf dump file vmlinux format raw | grep "'unix_sock'"
    [81287] FWD 'unix_sock' fwd_kind=struct
    [89336] STRUCT 'unix_sock' size=1024 vlen=14

    $ bpftool btf dump file vmlinux format c | grep "struct unix_sock"
    struct unix_sock;
    struct unix_sock___2 {	<--- conflict, the "___2" is unexpected
		    struct unix_sock___2 *unix_sk;

This causes a compilation error if the dump output is used as a header file.

Fix it by skipping declaration when counting duplicated type names.
