Song Liu 76193a9452 perf, bpf: Introduce PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL
For better performance analysis of dynamically JITed and loaded kernel
functions, such as BPF programs, this patch introduces
PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL, a new perf_event_type that exposes kernel symbol
register/unregister information to user space.

The following data structure is used for PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL.

    /*
     * struct {
     *      struct perf_event_header        header;
     *      u64                             addr;
     *      u32                             len;
     *      u16                             ksym_type;
     *      u16                             flags;
     *      char                            name[];
     *      struct sample_id                sample_id;
     * };
     */
