Currently we don't sort bpf_kallsyms and display symbols
in proc/kallsyms as they come in via __bpf_ksym_add.

Using the latch tree to get the next bpf_ksym object
and insert the new symbol ahead of it.

what is the motivation for sorting? do you want perf and other user space
to depend on it? Or purely aesthetics?

initially I thought perf depends on it, but it does its own sorting

but it turned out to be really easy and fast to sort bpf symbols
at the end, so I included it, because core symbols in kallsyms
are also sorted, I should have mentioned this in changelog
