Change FromRawTracepointArgs::arg to return T rather than *const T which
seems to have been returning a dangling pointer.
Arguably this is not strictly necessary; edition 2024 seems to be
focused on increased strictness around unsafe code which doesn't unlock
new functionality for our users. That said, this work revealed an
apparent bug (see above) that we wouldn't otherwise catch due to
allow-by-default lints.
Fixes#1132.
Note that this change does not add support in the public API for kprobes
or tracepoints, but it's a trivial matter of plumbing.
Along the way, the Uprobe::attach API is cleaned up to make the
attachment location more coherent. The logic being: if we're going to be
breaking the API anyway, may as well clean it up a bit.
Furthermore, the aya::sys::bpf_link_attach function is cleaned up by
properly modeling the the union in the final field with a rust enum.
And BpfLoader to EbpfLoader.
This also adds type aliases to preserve the use of the old names, making
updating to a new Aya release less of a burden. These aliases are marked
as deprecated since we'll likely remove them in a later release.

This implements the userspace binding for RingBuf.
Instead of streaming the samples as heap buffers, the process_ring
function takes a callback to which we pass the event's byte region,
roughly following [libbpf]'s API design. This avoids a copy and allows
marking the consumer pointer in a timely manner.

Additionally, integration tests are added to demonstrate the usage
of the new APIs and to ensure that they work end-to-end.
