Backport libbpf (0.5.0-1) to focal

[ethan.hsieh]

[Impact]
Backport libbpf (0.5.0-1) to focal as it is needed for IOTG TSN reference Software

[Where problems could occur]
libbpf is not available on focal

[Test Case]
A simple install test - installing the packages and making sure they install correctly.

Other tests could be performed by Intel, as they are the ones that requested the backport.

[Regression Potential]
No regression issue because it will be a new package on focal

[Other Info]
See LP: #1961130
