libbpf: Fix no-args func prototype BTF dumping syntax
For all these years libbpf's BTF dumper has been emitting not strictly
valid syntax for function prototypes that have no input arguments.
Instead of `int (*blah)()` we should emit `int (*blah)(void)`.
This is not normally a problem, but it manifests when we get kfuncs in
vmlinux.h that have no input arguments. Due to compiler internal
specifics, we get no BTF information for such kfuncs, if they are not
declared with proper `(void)`.
The fix is trivial. We also need to adjust a few ancient tests that
happily assumed `()` is correct.
Fixes: 351131b51c7a ("libbpf: add btf_dump API for BTF-to-C conversion")
