perf bpf: Collect perf_evsel in BPF object files

This patch creates a 'struct perf_evsel' for every probe in a BPF object
file(s) and fills 'struct evlist' with them. The previously introduced
dummy event is now removed. After this patch, the following command:

 # perf record --event filter.o ls

Can trace on each of the probes defined in filter.o.

The core of this patch is bpf__foreach_tev(), which calls a callback
function for each 'struct probe_trace_event' event for a bpf program
with each associated file descriptors. The add_bpf_event() callback
creates evsels by calling parse_events_add_tracepoint().

Since bpf-loader.c will not be built if libbpf is turned off, an empty
bpf__foreach_tev() is defined in bpf-loader.h to avoid build errors.

Committer notes:

Before:

  # /tmp/oldperf record --event /tmp/foo.o -a usleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.198 MB perf.data ]
  # perf evlist
  /tmp/foo.o
  # perf evlist -v
  /tmp/foo.o: type: 1, size: 112, config: 0x9, { sample_period,
  sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|CPU|PERIOD, disabled: 1,
  inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1,
  exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1

I.e. we create just the PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE (type: 1),
PERF_COUNT_SW_DUMMY(config 0x9) event, now, with this patch:

  # perf record --event /tmp/foo.o -a usleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.210 MB perf.data ]
  # perf evlist -v
  perf_bpf_probe:fork: type: 2, size: 112, config: 0x6bd, { sample_period,
  sample_freq }: 1, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|CPU|PERIOD|RAW, disabled: 1,
  inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest:
  1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1
  #

We now have a PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE (type: 1), but the config states 0x6bd,
which is how, after setting up the event via the kprobes interface, the
'perf_bpf_probe:fork' event is accessible via the perf_event_open
syscall. This is all transient, as soon as the 'perf record' session
ends, these probes will go away.

To see how it looks like, lets try doing a neverending session, one that
expects a control+C to end:

  # perf record --event /tmp/foo.o -a

So, with that in place, we can use 'perf probe' to see what is in place:

  # perf probe -l
    perf_bpf_probe:fork  (on _do_fork@acme/git/linux/kernel/fork.c)

We also can use debugfs:

  [root@felicio ~]# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
  p:perf_bpf_probe/fork _text+638512

Ok, now lets stop and see if we got some forks:

  [root@felicio linux]# perf record --event /tmp/foo.o -a
  ^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.325 MB perf.data (111 samples) ]

  [root@felicio linux]# perf script
      sshd  1271 [003] 81797.507678: perf_bpf_probe:fork: (ffffffff8109be30)
      sshd 18309 [000] 81797.524917: perf_bpf_probe:fork: (ffffffff8109be30)
      sshd 18309 [001] 81799.381603: perf_bpf_probe:fork: (ffffffff8109be30)
      sshd 18309 [001] 81799.408635: perf_bpf_probe:fork: (ffffffff8109be30)
  <SNIP>

Sure enough, we have 111 forks :-)

Callchains seems to work as well:

  # perf report --stdio --no-child
  # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.

  # Total Lost Samples: 0
