[PATCH v2 1/3] libdtrace: resolve BTF type tags transparently

Without this fix, running any DTrace commands results in:

```
dtrace: invalid probe specifier ::::
"/usr/lib64/dtrace/6.12.0/procfs.d", line 131: operator -> cannot be
applied to pointer to type "void"; must be applied to a struct or
union pointer
```

The issue occurs on kernels which have BTF with type tags. The fix is
to treat `BTF_KIND_TYPE_TAG` as a transparent modifier, resolving
straight to `type->type`.

v2: also handle BTF_KIND_TYPE_TAG as a transparent modifier in
    dt_btf_real_type_by_id() (per review feedback).
