From: pengdonglin This patch introduces binary search optimization for BTF type lookups when the BTF instance contains sorted types. The optimization significantly improves performance when searching for types in large BTF instances with sorted type names. For unsorted BTF or when nr_sorted_types is zero, the implementation falls back to the original linear search algorithm.
