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.

perf tests attr: Add proper return values

The record command now properly returns the status of the tracee if
there's any. We need to properly set the expected return value of the
tracee in the attr tests.

perf tests attr: Fix record dwarf test

Following commit:

commit 5c0cf22477ea ("perf record: Store data mmaps for dwarf unwind")

have enabled address sampling for dwarf unwind, we need to reflect that
in this test by adding ADDR sample_type and enabling mmap_data.

# 46d525ea 31-Oct-2013 Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

perf test: Update command line callchain attribute tests

The "struct perf_event_attr setup" entry in 'perf test' is in fact a
series of tests that will exec the tools, passing different sets of
command line arguments to then intercept the sys_perf_event_open
syscall, in user space, to check that the perf_event_attr->sample_type
and other feature request bits are setup as expected.

We recently restored the callchain requesting command line argument, -g,
to not require a parameter ("dwarf" or "fp"), instead using a default
("fp" for now) and making the long option variant, --call-chain, be the
one to be used when a different callchain collection method is
preferred.

The "struct perf_event_attr setup" test failed because we forgot to
update the tests involving callchains, not switching from, '-g dwarf' to
'--call-chain dwarf', making 'perf test' detect it:

[root@sandy ~]# perf test -v 13
13: struct perf_event_attr setup :
--- start ---
running '/home/acme/libexec/perf-core/tests/attr/test-record-basic'
running '/home/acme/libexec/perf-core/tests/attr/test-record-branch-any'
<SNIP>
running '/home/acme/libexec/perf-core/tests/attr/test-record-graph-default'
running '/home/acme/libexec/perf-core/tests/attr/test-record-graph-dwarf'
expected sample_type=12583, got 295
expected exclude_callchain_user=1, got 0
expected sample_stack_user=8192, got 0
FAILED '/home/acme/libexec/perf-core/tests/attr/test-record-graph-dwarf' - match failure
---- end ----
struct perf_event_attr setup: FAILED!
[root@sandy ~]#

Fix all of them now to use --call-chain when explicitely specifying a
method.

There is still work to do, as '-g fp', for instance, passed without
problems.

In that case 'perf test' saw no problems as the intercepted syscall got
the bits as expected, i.e. the default is 'fp', but the fact that 'fp'
may be an existing program and the specified workload would then be
passed as a parameter to it is an usability problem that needs fixing.

Next merge window tho.
