Should we remove BTFHub support?

I discovered today that the BTF information in bpfrecorder/generated.go should be updated after ~ every change to the BPF information. This clearly hasn't happend (last update is from 2022), and external BTF support has been silently broken without anyone noticing.

Considering it would be a serious maintenance effort if we'd do it properly, should we just remove support for kernels without built-in BTF support? The state of BPF (and BTF) support has advanced quite a bit since this was first introduced.
