#1545280 — [PATCH 18/29] tools lib bpf: Add flags to bpf_create_map()

From: Joe Stringer <joe@ovn.org>

Commit 6c905981743 ("bpf: pre-allocate hash map elements") introduces
map_flags to bpf_attr for BPF_MAP_CREATE command. Expose this new
parameter in libbpf.

By exposing it, users can access flags such as whether or not to
preallocate the map.
