[ Upstream commit 4f596acc260e691a2e348f64230392f3472feea3 ]
When creating multi-split BTF we correctly set the start string offset to be the size of the base string section plus the base BTF start string offset; the latter is needed for multi-split BTF since the offset is non-zero there.
Unfortunately the BTF parsing case needed that logic and it was missed.
