The kernel bpf selftest include the test_bpftool_build.sh script, that ensures that all supported ways of building bpftool still work as expected.

Add a dedicated action to allow executing this script in CI.

Note:
I initially thought about just bringing test_bpftool_build.sh in here instead of creating build_bpftool.sh, but I then considered that it is likely better to keep concern separated: this repository just contains the minimum executor script, and the actual test lives in the kernel source tree.

See RFC on mailing list: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/DKT6QBHWC8YM.4D90SOC807CW@bootlin.com/
