Song Liu d56354dc49 perf tools: Save bpf_prog_info and BTF of new BPF programs
To fully annotate BPF programs with source code mapping, 4 different
information are needed:

    1) PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL
    2) PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT
    3) bpf_prog_info
    4) btf

This patch handles 3) and 4) for BPF programs loaded after 'perf
record|top'.

For timely process of these information, a dedicated event is added to
the side band evlist.

When PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT is received via the side band event, the
polling thread gathers 3) and 4) vis sys_bpf and store them in perf_env.

This information is saved to perf.data at the end of 'perf record'.

Committer testing:

The 'wakeup_watermark' member in 'struct perf_event_attr' is inside a
unnamed union, so can't be used in a struct designated initialization
with older gccs, get it out of that, isolating as 'attr.wakeup_watermark
= 1;' to work with all gcc versions.

We also need to add '--no-bpf-event' to the 'perf record'
perf_event_attr tests in 'perf test', as the way that that test goes is
to intercept the events being setup and looking if they match the fields
described in the control files, since now it finds first the side band
event used to catch the PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT, they all fail.

With these issues fixed:

Same scenario as for testing BPF programs loaded before 'perf record' or
'perf top' starts, only start the BPF programs after 'perf record|top',
so that its information get collected by the sideband threads, the rest
works as for the programs loaded before start monitoring.

Add missing 'inline' to the bpf_event__add_sb_event() when
HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT is not defined, fixing the build in systems without
binutils devel files installed.

README

The struct perf_event_attr test (attr tests) support
====================================================
This testing support is embedded into perf directly and is governed
by the PERF_TEST_ATTR environment variable and hook inside the
sys_perf_event_open function.

The general idea is to store 'struct perf_event_attr' details for
each event created within single perf command. Each event details
are stored into separate text file. Once perf command is finished
these files are checked for values we expect for command.

The attr tests consist of following parts:

tests/attr.c
------------
This is the sys_perf_event_open hook implementation. The hook
is triggered when the PERF_TEST_ATTR environment variable is
defined. It must contain name of existing directory with access
and write permissions.

For each sys_perf_event_open call event details are stored in
separate file. Besides 'struct perf_event_attr' values we also
store 'fd' and 'group_fd' values to allow checking for groups.

tests/attr.py
-------------
This is the python script that does all the hard work. It reads
the test definition, executes it and checks results.

tests/attr/
-----------
Directory containing all attr test definitions.
Following tests are defined (with perf commands):

  perf record kill                              (test-record-basic)
