libbpf: Deprecate bpf_objects_list
Add a flag to `enum libbpf_strict_mode' to disable the global `bpf_objects_list', preventing race conditions when concurrent threads call bpf_object__open() or bpf_object__close(). bpf_object__next() will return NULL if this option is set. Callers may achieve the same workflow by tracking bpf_objects in application code.
