[PATCH] libtraceevent: Use BTF_INT_BITS/OFFSET() when parsing int parameters

From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <[email protected]>

The BTF_KIND_INT can be less than 64 bits in size and the
BTF_INT_BITS(encode) will express that.

Also process BTF_INT_OFFSET() even though it is likely to be zero every
time, but it follows the specification.
