perf stat: Support per-cluster aggregation

Some platforms have 'cluster' topology and CPUs in the cluster will
share resources like L3 Cache Tag (for HiSilicon Kunpeng SoC) or L2
cache (for Intel Jacobsville). Currently parsing and building cluster
topology have been supported since [1].

perf stat has already supported aggregation for other topologies like
die or socket, etc. It'll be useful to aggregate per-cluster to find
problems like L3T bandwidth contention.

This patch add support for "--per-cluster" option for per-cluster
aggregation. Also update the docs and related test. The output will
be like:

[root@localhost tmp]# perf stat -a -e LLC-load --per-cluster -- sleep 5

Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

S56-D0-CLS158 4 1,321,521,570 LLC-load
S56-D0-CLS594 4 794,211,453 LLC-load
S56-D0-CLS1030 4 41,623 LLC-load
S56-D0-CLS1466 4 41,646 LLC-load
S56-D0-CLS1902 4 16,863 LLC-load
S56-D0-CLS2338 4 15,721 LLC-load
S56-D0-CLS2774 4 22,671 LLC-load
[...]

On a legacy system without cluster or cluster support, the output will
be look like:
[root@localhost perf]# perf stat -a -e cycles --per-cluster -- sleep 1

Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

S56-D0-CLS0 64 18,011,485 cycles
S7182-D0-CLS0 64 16,548,835 cycles

Note that this patch doesn't mix the cluster information in the outputs
of --per-core to avoid breaking any tools/scripts using it.

Note that perf recently supports "--per-cache" aggregation, but it's not
the same with the cluster although cluster CPUs may share some cache
resources. For example on my machine all clusters within a die share the
same L3 cache:
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cache/index3/shared_cpu_list
0-31
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/topology/cluster_cpus_list
0-3

perf tests stat+csv_output: Include sanity check for topology

Testcase stat+csv_output.sh fails in powerpc:

84: perf stat CSV output linter: FAILED!

The testcase "stat+csv_output.sh" verifies perf stat CSV output. The
test covers aggregation modes like per-socket, per-core, per-die, -A
(no_aggr mode) along with few other tests. It counts expected fields for
various commands. For example say -A (i.e, AGGR_NONE mode), expects 7
fields in the output having "CPU" as first field. Same way, for
per-socket, it expects the first field in result to point to socket id.
The testcases compares the result with expected count.

The values for socket, die, core and cpu are fetched from topology
directory:

/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/topology.

For example, socket value is fetched from "physical_package_id" file of
topology directory. (cpu__get_topology_int() in util/cpumap.c)

If a platform fails to fetch the topology information, values will be
set to -1. For example, incase of pSeries platform of powerpc, value for
"physical_package_id" is restricted and not exposed. So, -1 will be
assigned.

Perf code has a checks for valid cpu id in "aggr_printout"
(stat-display.c), which displays the fields. So, in cases where topology
values not exposed, first field of the output displaying will be empty.
This cause the testcase to fail, as it counts number of fields in the
output.

Incase of -A (AGGR_NONE mode,), testcase expects 7 fields in the output,
becos of -1 value obtained from topology files for some, only 6 fields
are printed. Hence a testcase failure reported due to mismatch in number
of fields in the output.

Patch here adds a sanity check in the testcase for topology. Check will
help to skip the test if -1 value found.

perf test: Fix test case 83 ('perf stat CSV output linter') on s390

Perf test case 83: perf stat CSV output linter might fail
on s390.
The reason for this is the output of the command

./perf stat -x, -A -a --no-merge true

which depends on a .config file setting. When CONFIG_SCHED_TOPOLOGY
is set, the output of above perf command is

CPU0,1.50,msec,cpu-clock,1502781,100.00,1.052,CPUs utilized

When CONFIG_SCHED_TOPOLOGY is *NOT* set the output of above perf
command is

0.95,msec,cpu-clock,949800,100.00,1.060,CPUs utilized

Fix the test case to accept both output formats.

# perf test 83

Output after:
# ./perf test 83

perf test: Fix "perf stat CSV output linter" test on s390

perf test -F 83 ("perf stat CSV output linter") fails on s390.

Reason is the wrong number of fields for certain CPU core/die/socket
related output.

On x84_64 the output of command:

# ./perf stat -x, -A -a --no-merge true
CPU0,1.50,msec,cpu-clock,1502781,100.00,1.052,CPUs utilized
CPU1,1.48,msec,cpu-clock,1476113,100.00,1.034,CPUs utilized
...

results in 8 fields with 7 comma separators.

On s390 the output of command:

# ./perf stat -x, -A -a --no-merge -- true
0.95,msec,cpu-clock,949800,100.00,1.060,CPUs utilized
...

results in 7 fields with 6 comma separators. Therefore this tests
fails on s390. Similar issues exist for per-die and per-socket output
which is not supported on s390.

I have rewritten the python program to count commas in each output line
into a bash function to achieve the same result. I hope this makes it a
bit easier.

Output before:

perf test: Add checking for perf stat CSV output.

Counts expected fields for various commands. No testing added for
summary mode since it is broken.

An example of the summary output is:

summary,263831,,instructions:u,1435072,100.0,0.46,insn per cycle
,,,,,1.37,stalled cycles per insn

This should be:

summary,263831,,instructions:u,1435072,100.0,0.46,insn per cycle
summary,,,,,,1.37,stalled cycles per insn

The output has 7 fields when it should have 8. Additionally, the newline
spacing is wrong, so it was excluded from testing until a fix is made.
