So that it can properly handle alignment requirements later. To do
that, add percent_color_len_snprintf() fucntion to help coloring of
overhead columns.

In
$ perf diff -c ratio
color the Ratio column using value_color_snprintf(), a new function that
operates exactly like percent_color_snprintf().
At first glance, it looks like percent_color_snprintf() can be turned
into a non-variadic function simplifying things; however, 53805ec (perf
tools: Remove cast of non-variadic function to variadic, 2013-10-31)
explains why it needs to be a variadic function.

The 4fb71074a5 (perf ui/hist: Consolidate hpp helpers) cset introduced
a cast of percent_color_snprintf to a function pointer type with
varargs. Change percent_color_snprintf to be variadic and remove the
cast.
The symptom of this was all percentages being reported as 0.00% in perf
report --stdio output on the armhf arch.

Several places were expecting that the value returned was the number of
characters printed, not what would be printed if there was space.
Fix it by using the scnprintf and vscnprintf variants we inherited from
the kernel sources.
Some corner cases where the number of printed characters were not
accounted were fixed too.

This patch adds an option (-o) to save the output of perf stat into a
file. You could do this with perf record but not with perf stat.
Instead, you had to fiddle with stderr to save the counts into a
separate file.
The patch also adds the --append option so that results can be
concatenated into a single file across runs. Each run of the tool is
clearly separated by a comment line starting with a hash mark. The -A
option of perf record is already used by perf stat, so we only add a
long option.
$ perf stat -o res.txt date
$ cat res.txt
Performance counter stats for 'date':
0.791306 task-clock # 0.668 CPUs utilized
2 context-switches # 0.003 M/sec
0 CPU-migrations # 0.000 M/sec

9014 branch-misses # 4.67% of all branches
0.001184746 seconds time elapsed
The option can be combined with -x to make the output file much easier
to parse.

Then hist_entry__fprintf will just us the newly introduced
hist_entry__snprintf, add the newline and fprintf it to the supplied
FILE descriptor.
This allows us to remove the use_browser checking in the color_printf
routines, that now got color_snprintf variants too.
The newt TUI browser (and other GUIs that may come in the future) don't
have to worry about stdio specific stuff in the strings they get from
the se->snprintf routines and instead use whatever means to do the
equivalent.
Also the newt TUI browser don't have to use the fmemopen() hack, instead
it can use the se->snprintf routines directly. For now tho use the
hist_entry__snprintf routine to reduce the patch size.

Newt has widespread availability and provides a rather simple
API as can be seen by the size of this patch.
The work needed to support it will benefit other frontends too.
In this initial patch it just checks if the output is a tty, if
not it falls back to the previous behaviour, also if
newt-devel/libnewt-dev is not installed the previous behaviour
is maintaned.
Pressing enter on a symbol will annotate it, ESC in the
annotation window will return to the report symbol list.
More work will be done to remove the special casing in
color_fprintf, stop using fmemopen/FILE in the printing of
hist_entries, etc.
Also the annotation doesn't need to be done via spawning "perf
annotate" and then browsing its output, we can do better by
calling directly the builtin-annotate.c functions, that would
then be moved to tools/perf/util/annotate.c and shared with perf
top, etc
But lets go by baby steps, this patch already improves perf
usability by allowing to quickly do annotations on symbols from
the report screen and provides a first experimentation with
libnewt/TUI integration of tools.
Tested on RHEL5 and Fedora12 X86_64 and on Debian PARISC64 to
browse a perf.data file collected on a Fedora12 x86_64 box.

Librarize trace_event() helper so that perf trace can use it
too. Also clean up the debug.h includes a bit.
It's not good to have it included in perf.h because it doesn't
make it flexible against other headers it may need (headers
that can also depend on perf.h and then create a recursive
header dependency).

Related to a shadowed variable bug fix Valdis Kletnieks noticed
that perf does not get built with -Wshadow, which could have
helped us avoid the bug.
So enable -Wshadow and also enable the following warnings on
perf builds, in addition to the already enabled -Wall -Wextra
-std=gnu99 warnings:
-Wcast-align
-Wformat=2
-Wshadow
-Winit-self
-Wpacked
-Wredundant-decls
-Wstack-protector
-Wstrict-aliasing=3
-Wswitch-default
-Wswitch-enum
-Wno-system-headers
-Wundef
-Wvolatile-register-var
-Wwrite-strings
-Wbad-function-cast
-Wmissing-declarations
-Wmissing-prototypes
-Wnested-externs
-Wold-style-definition
-Wstrict-prototypes
-Wdeclaration-after-statement
And change/fix the perf code to build cleanly under GCC 4.3.2.
The list of warnings enablement is rather arbitrary: it's based
on my (quick) reading of the GCC manpages and trying them on
perf.
I categorized the warnings based on individually enabling them
and looking whether they trigger something in the perf build.
If i liked those warnings (i.e. if they trigger for something
that arguably could be improved) i enabled the warning.
If the warnings seemed to come from language laywers spamming
the build with tons of nuisance warnings i generally kept them
off. Most of the sign conversion related warnings were in
this category. (A second patch enabling some of the sign
warnings might be welcome - sign bugs can be nasty.)
I also kept warnings that seem to make sense from their manpage
description and which produced no actual warnings on our code
base. These warnings might still be turned off if they end up
being a nuisance.
I also left out a few warnings that are not supported in older
compilers.
[ Note that these changes might break the build on older
compilers i did not test, or on non-x86 architectures that
produce different warnings, so more testing would be welcome. ]

Among perf annotate, perf report and perf top, we can find the
common colored printing of percents according to the following
rules:
High overhead = > 5%, colored in red
Mid overhead = > 0.5%, colored in green
Low overhead = < 0.5%, default color
Factorize these multiple checks in a single function named
percent_color_fprintf() and also provide a get_percent_color()
for sites which print percentages and other things at the same
time.

Enable -Wextra. This found a few real bugs plus a number
of signed/unsigned type mismatches/uncleanlinesses. It
also required a few annotations
All things considered it was still worth it so lets try with
