libbpf: Improve debug message when the base BTF cannot be found



When running `bpftool` on a kernel module installed in `/lib/modules...`,
this error is encountered if the user does not specify `--base-btf` to
point to a valid base BTF (e.g. usually in `/sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux`).
However, looking at the debug output to determine the cause of the error
simply says `Invalid BTF string section`, which does not point to the
actual source of the error. This just improves that debug message to tell
users what happened.
