bpftool: Use sysfs vmlinux when dumping BTF by ID

Currently, dumping almost all BTFs specified by id requires
using the -B option to pass the base BTF. For kernel module
BTFs the vmlinux BTF sysfs path should work.

This patch simplifies dumping by ID usage by loading
vmlinux BTF from sysfs as base, if base BTF was not specified
and the ID corresponds to a kernel module BTF.
