Subject: [PATCH] libbpf: check for empty BTF data section in btf_parse_elf

A valid ELF file may contain a SHT_NOBITS .BTF section. This case is
not handled correctly in btf_parse_elf, which leads to a segfault.

Add a null check for a buffer returned by elf_getdata() before
proceeding with its processing.
