When reporting on 'record' server we try to retrieve/use the mnt
namespace of the profiled tasks. We use following API with cookie to
hold the return namespace, roughly:
nsinfo__mountns_enter(struct nsinfo *nsi, struct nscookie *nc)
setns(newns, 0);
...
new ns related open..
...
nsinfo__mountns_exit(struct nscookie *nc)
setns(nc->oldns)
Once finished we setns to old namespace, which also sets the current
working directory (cwd) to "/", trashing the cwd we had.
This is mostly fine, because we use absolute paths almost everywhere,
but it screws up 'perf diff':
# perf diff
failed to open perf.data: No such file or directory (try 'perf record' first)
...
Adding the current working directory to be part of the cookie and
restoring it in the nsinfo__mountns_exit call.

The UAPI file byteorder/little_endian.h uses the __always_inline define
without including the header where it is defined, linux/stddef.h, this
ends up working in all the other distros because that file gets included
seemingly by luck from one of the files included from little_endian.h.
But not on Alpine:edge, that fails for all files where perf_event.h is
included but linux/stddef.h isn't include before that.
Adding the missing linux/stddef.h file where it breaks on Alpine:edge to
fix that, in all other distros, that is just a very small header anyway.

We don't need perf.h, that is a kitchen sink, all we need is
perf_events.h for perf_ns_link_info, sys/types.h for pid_t and
linux/types.h for u64, list_head.

Teaches perf how to place a uprobe on a file that's in a different mount
namespace. The user must add the probe using the --target-ns argument
to perf probe. Once it has been placed, it may be recorded against
without further namespace-specific commands.

If a process is in a mountns and has symbols in /tmp/perf-<pid>.map,
look first in the namespace using the tgid for the pidns that the
process might be in. If the map isn't found there, try looking in the
mountns where perf is running, and use the tgid that's appropriate for
perf's pid namespace. If all else fails, use the original pid.
This allows us to locate a symbol map file in the mount namespace, if it
was generated there. However, we also try the tool's /tmp in case it's
there instead.

Teach perf how to resolve symbols from binaries that are in a different
mount namespace from the tool. This allows perf to generate meaningful
stack traces even if the binary resides in a different mount namespace
from the tool.

Introduce a new option to record PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES events emitted
by the kernel when fork, clone, setns or unshare are invoked. And update
perf-record documentation with the new option to record namespace
events.
Committer notes:
Combined it with a later patch to allow printing it via 'perf report -D'
and be able to test the feature introduced in this patch. Had to move
here also perf_ns__name(), that was introduced in another later patch.
Also used PRIu64 and PRIx64 to fix the build in some enfironments wrt:
util/event.c:1129:39: error: format '%lx' expects argument of type 'long unsigned int', but argument 6 has type 'long long unsigned int' [-Werror=format=]
ret += fprintf(fp, "%u/%s: %lu/0x%lx%s", idx
^
Testing it:
# perf record --namespaces -a
^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.083 MB perf.data (423 samples) ]
#
# perf report -D
