perf cpumap: Add reference count checking

Enabled when REFCNT_CHECKING is defined. The change adds a memory
allocated pointer that is interposed between the reference counted cpu
map at a get and freed by a put. The pointer replaces the original
perf_cpu_map struct, so use of the perf_cpu_map via APIs remains
unchanged. Any use of the cpu map without the API requires two versions,
handled via the RC_CHK_ACCESS macro.

This change is intended to catch:

- use after put: using a cpumap after you have put it will cause a
segv.
- unbalanced puts: two puts for a get will result in a double free
that can be captured and reported by tools like address sanitizer,
including with the associated stack traces of allocation and frees.
- missing puts: if a put is missing then the get turns into a memory
leak that can be reported by leak sanitizer, including the stack
trace at the point the get occurs.

libperf: Fix install_pkgconfig target

Commit 47e02b94a4c98dcc ("tools lib perf: Add dependency test to install_headers")
misses the notion of $(DESTDIR_SQ) for install_pkgconfig target, which leads to
error:

install: cannot create regular file '/usr/lib64/pkgconfig/libperf.pc': Permission denied
make: *** [Makefile:210: install_pkgconfig] Error 1

tools lib perf: Add dependency test to install_headers

Compute the headers to be installed from their source headers and make
each have its own build target to install it. Using dependencies
avoids headers being reinstalled and getting a new timestamp which
then causes files that depend on the header to be rebuilt.

# 5c816641 10-Feb-2022 Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>

kbuild: replace $(if A,A,B) with $(or A,B)

$(or ...) is available since GNU Make 3.81, and useful to shorten the
code in some places.

Covert as follows:

$(if A,A,B) --> $(or A,B)

This patch also converts:

$(if A, A, B) --> $(or A, B)

Strictly speaking, the latter is not an equivalent conversion because
GNU Make keeps spaces after commas; if A is not empty, $(if A, A, B)
expands to " A", while $(or A, B) expands to "A".

Anyway, preceding spaces are not significant in the code hunks I touched.

libperf: Change tests to single static and shared binaries

Make tests to be two binaries 'tests_static' and 'tests_shared', so the
maintenance is easier.

Adding tests under libperf build system, so we define all the flags just
once.

Adding make-tests tule to just compile tests without running them.

libperf: Add man pages

Change the man page generation to asciidoc, because it's easier to use
and has been more commonly used in related projects. Remove the current
rst pages.

Add 3 man pages to have a base for more additions:

libperf.3 - overall description
libperf-counting.7 - counting basics explained on simple example
libperf-sampling.7 - sampling basics explained on simple example

The plan is to add more man pages to cover the basic API.

The build generates html and man pages:

$ cd tools/lib/perf/Documentation
$ make
ASCIIDOC libperf.xml
XMLTO libperf.3
ASCIIDOC libperf-counting.xml
XMLTO libperf-counting.7
ASCIIDOC libperf-sampling.xml
XMLTO libperf-sampling.7
ASCIIDOC libperf.html
ASCIIDOC libperf-counting.html
ASCIIDOC libperf-sampling.html

Add the following install targets:

install-man - man pages
install-html - html version of man pages
install-examples - examples mentioned in the man pages

libperf: Move to tools/lib/perf

Move libperf from its current location under tools/perf to a separate
directory under tools/lib/.

Also change various paths (mainly includes) to reflect the libperf move
to a separate directory and add a new directory under MANIFEST.
