Add 'perf stat record' command support. It creates simple (header only)
perf.data file ATM.
The record command could be specified anywhere among stat options. All
stat command options are valid for stat record command with '-o' option
exception. If specified for record command it denotes the perf data file
name.
Committer note:
Set sample_type to PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER, which should be harmless
while avoiding that older tools show confusing messages, for instance,
with sample_type = 0, we get:
$ perf stat record usleep 1

While with sample_type set to PERF_SAMPLE_IDENTIFIER, after we re-run 'perf
stat record usleep' we get:

Which at least shows the names of the events in the perf.data file.
Additionally, such files, when passed to 'perf report' will produce:

Samples in kernel modules can't be resolved as well.
Error:

Which is confusing and can be solved by just adding the kernel mmap record,
which will also remove that warning about the data size field being equal to
zero, after generating the mmap record:

When building perf binaries outside the source tree with 'make O=<dir>',
the auto-detected features get re-tested for every build, which is
unnecessary and inconsistent with the behavior seen when building
directly in the source tree.
Another issue is that 'make O=<dir> clean' doesn't remove the feature
files from the object tree.
Fix these problems by looking for the binaries in the $(OUTPUT)
directory.

Post processing at 'perf record' takes a long time on big machines.
What it does is to find the build-id of binaries found in the event
stream, so that it can make sure, at 'report' time, that the symtabs (be
it ELF, kallsyms, etc) being used to resolve symbols are the ones
matching the binaries found at 'record' time.
Sometimes we just want to skip this processing of events at the end of
the session to get quicker results, making sure the binaries haven't
changed from 'record' to 'report' time.
Add a new config option to control this behavior.
The record.build-id config variable can have one of the following
values:
- cache: post-process data and save/update the binaries into the
build-id cache (in ~/.debug). This is the default.
- no-cache: post-process the data but not update the build-id cache.
Same effect as using the -N option.
- skip: skip post-processing and do not update the cache.
Same effect as using the -B option.

Make perf-record command support --vmlinux option if BPF_PROLOGUE is on.
'perf record' needs vmlinux as the source of DWARF info to generate
prologue for BPF programs, so path of vmlinux should be specified.
Short name 'k' has been taken by 'clockid'. This patch skips the short
option name and uses '--vmlinux' for vmlinux path.
Documentation is also updated.
Test result:

This patch keeps options of perf builtins same in all conditions. If
one option is disabled because of compiling options, users should be
notified.
Masami suggested another implementation in [1] that, by adding a
OPTION_NEXT_DEPENDS option before those options in the 'struct option'
array, options parser knows an option is disabled. However, in some
cases this array is reordered (options__order()). In addition, in
parse-option.c that array is const, so we can't simply merge
information in decorator option into the affacted option.
This patch chooses a simpler implementation that, introducing a
set_option_nobuild() function and two option parsing flags. Builtins
with such options should call set_option_nobuild() before option
parsing. The complexity of this patch is because we want some of options
can be skipped safely. In this case their arguments should also be
consumed.
Options in 'perf record' and 'perf probe' are fixed in this patch.
