bpf, libbpf: simplify and cleanup perf ring buffer walk
Simplify bpf_perf_event_read_simple() a bit and fix up some minor things along the way: the return code in the header is not of type int but enum bpf_perf_event_ret instead. Once callback indicated to break the loop walking event data, it also needs to be consumed in data_tail since it has been processed already. Moreover, bpf_perf_event_print_t callback should avoid void * as we actually get a pointer to struct perf_event_header and thus applications can make use of container_of() to have type checks. The walk also doesn't have to use modulo op since the ring size is required to be power of two.
