Create a script browser, so that user can check all the available
scripts for current perf data file and run them inside the main perf
report or annotation browsers, for all perf samples or for samples
belong to one thread/symbol.
Please be noted: current script browser is only for report use, and
doesn't cover the record phase, IOW it must run against one existing
perf data file.
The work flow is, users can use function key to list all the available
scripts for current perf data file in system and chose one, which will
be executed with popen("perf script -s xxx.xx",) and all the output
lines are put into one ui browser, pressing 'q' or left arrow key will
make it return to previous browser.

There's a portion in the "perf list" output refering to the exact
specification of raw hardware events.
Since this description is in the perf-list manpage, try to build and
install the man pages, warning the user when that is not possible
due to missing packages (xmlto and asciidoc).

Using the same strategies as in the tmp.perf/trace2, i.e. the 'trace'
tool implemented by tglx, just updated to the current codebase.
Example:
[root@sandy linux]# perf trace usleep 1 | tail
2.003: mmap(addr: 0, len: 4096, prot: 3, flags: 34, fd: 4294967295, off: 0 ) = -2128396288
2.017: mmap(addr: 0, len: 4096, prot: 3, flags: 34, fd: 4294967295, off: 0 ) = -2128400384
2.029: arch_prctl(option: 4098, arg2: 140146949441280, arg3: 140146949435392, arg4: 34, arg5: 4294967295) = 0
2.084: mprotect(start: 208741634048, len: 16384, prot: 1 ) = 0
2.098: mprotect(start: 208735956992, len: 4096, prot: 1 ) = 0
2.122: munmap(addr: 140146949447680, len: 91882 ) = 0
2.359: brk(brk: 0 ) = 28987392
2.371: brk(brk: 29122560 ) = 29122560
2.490: nanosleep(rqtp: 140735694241504, rmtp: 0 ) = 0
2.507: exit_group(error_code: 0
[root@sandy linux]#
For now the timestamp and duration are always on, will be selectable.
Also if multiple threads are being monitored, its tid will appear.
The ret output continues to be interpreted a la strace.

Event parsing tests are broken by following commit:
perf tool: Precise mode requires exclude_guest
commit 1342798cc1
Author: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com>
Date: Thu Sep 13 14:59:13 2012 -0600
which enables 'exclude_guest' modifier any time the 'precise'
modifier is detected.
Fixing related tests and adding special comment.

Namhyung Kim reported that the build fails with:
GEN python/perf.so
gcc: error: python_ext_build/tmp//../../libtraceevent.a: No such file or directory
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1
cp: cannot stat `python_ext_build/lib/perf.so': No such file or directory
make: *** [python/perf.so] Error 1
We need to propagate the TE_PATH variable to the setup.py file.

Pull perf/urgent fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
* The python binding needs to link with libtraceevent and to initialize
the 'page_size' variable so that mmaping works again.
* The callchain folding character that appears on the TUI just before
the overhead had disappeared due to recent changes, add it back.
* Intel PEBS in VT-x context uses the DS address as a guest linear address,
even though its programmed by the host as a host linear address. This either
results in guest memory corruption and or the hardware faulting and 'crashing'
the virtual machine. Therefore we have to disable PEBS on VT-x enter and
re-enable on VT-x exit, enforcing a strict exclude_guest.
Kernel side enforcement fix by Peter Zijlstra, tooling side fix by David Ahern.
* Fix build on sparc due to UAPI, fix from David Miller.
* Fixes for the srclike sort key for unresolved symbols and when processing
samples in JITted code, where we don't have an ELF file, just an special
symbol table, fixes from Namhyung Kim.
* Fix some leaks in libtraceevent, from Steven Rostedt.
