Subject: bpftool: Enable line buffering for stdout
Patch-mainline: v5.17-rc1
Git-commit: 1a1a0b0364ad291bd8e509da104ac8b5b1afec5d
References: jsc#PED-1368

The output of bpftool prog tracelog is currently buffered, which is
inconvenient when piping the output into other commands. A simple
tracelog | grep will typically not display anything. This patch fixes it
by enabling line buffering on stdout for the whole bpftool binary.

Fixes: 30da46b5dc3a ("tools: bpftool: add a command to dump the trace pipe")
