[BPF] add proper multi-dimensional array support

For multi-dimensional array like below
  int a[2][3];
the previous implementation generates BTF_KIND_ARRAY type
like below:
  . element_type: int
  . index_type: unsigned int
  . number of elements: 6

This is not the best way to represent arrays, esp.,
when converting BTF back to headers and users will see
  int a[6];
instead.

This patch generates proper support for multi-dimensional arrays.
For "int a[2][3]", the two BTF_KIND_ARRAY types will be
generated:
  Type #n:
    . element_type: int
    . index_type: unsigned int
    . number of elements: 3
  Type #(n+1):
    . element_type: #n
    . index_type: unsigned int
    . number of elements: 2

The linux kernel already supports such a multi-dimensional
array representation properly.
