perf bpf filter: Add logical OR operator

It supports two or more expressions connected as a group and the group
result is considered true when one of them returns true. The new group
operators (GROUP_BEGIN and GROUP_END) are added to setup and check the
condition. As it doesn't allow nested groups, the condition is saved
in local variables.

For example, the following is to get samples only if the data source
memory level is L2 cache or the weight value is greater than 30.

$ sudo ./perf record -adW -e cpu/mem-loads/pp \
> --filter 'mem_lvl == l2 || weight > 30' -- sleep 1

$ sudo ./perf script -F data_src,weight

perf bpf filter: Add 'pid' sample data support

The pid is special because it's saved in the PERF_SAMPLE_TID together.
So it needs to differenciate tid and pid using the 'part' field in the
perf bpf filter entry struct.

perf record: Record dropped sample count

When it uses bpf filters, event might drop some samples. It'd be nice
if it can report how many samples it lost. As LOST_SAMPLES event can
carry the similar information, let's use it for bpf filters.

To indicate it's from BPF filters, add a new misc flag for that and
do not display cpu load warnings.

perf bpf filter: Implement event sample filtering

The BPF program will be attached to a perf_event and be triggered when
it overflows. It'd iterate the filters map and compare the sample
value according to the expression. If any of them fails, the sample
would be dropped.

Also it needs to have the corresponding sample data for the expression
so it compares data->sample_flags with the given value. To access the
sample data, it uses the bpf_cast_to_kern_ctx() kfunc which was added
in v6.2 kernel.

perf bpf filter: Introduce basic BPF filter expression

This implements a tiny parser for the filter expressions used for BPF.
Each expression will be converted to struct perf_bpf_filter_expr and
be passed to a BPF map.

For now, I'd like to start with the very basic comparisons like EQ or
GT. The LHS should be a term for sample data and the RHS is a number.
The expressions are connected by a comma. For example,

period > 10000
ip < 0x1000000000000, cpu == 3
