We started parsing perf.data at head 0. This caused -D to
segfault and it could possibly also case incorrect trace
entries to be displayed.
Parse it at data_offset instead.

Older versions of GCC are rather stupid about strict aliasing:

make: *** [util/trace-event-parse.o] Error 1
Make it clear to GCC that we intend with those pointers, by passing
them through via an explicit (void *) cast.
We might want to add -fno-strict-aliasing as well, like the kernel
itself does.

Make it easier to turn warnings on/off by using a separate
line for each warning added.
Some of the warnings have too much of a nuisance factor and
we might want to turn them off in the future.

In perf tools, we hardcode the pid 0 cmdline resolving to
"idle" because the init task is not included in the COMM
events.
But the idle tasks secondary cpus are resolved into their
"init" name through the COMM events.
We have then such strange result in perf report (ditto with
trace):
19.66% init [kernel] [k] acpi_idle_enter_c1
17.32% [idle] [kernel] [k] acpi_idle_enter_c1
It's then better to unify the swapper tasks into a single init
name.

The cmd-trace tool used the cmdline file and resolved the idle
thread using a hardcoded check for the 0 task pid.
Now we have a centralized way to do that from perf using
register_idle_thread() API.

Add an owner check to opening perf.data files and a switch to
silence it.
Because perf-report/perf-annotate are binary parsers reading
another users' perf.data file could be a security risk if the
file were explicitly engineered to trigger bugs in the parser
(we hope of course there are non such bugs, but you never
know).

The librarization of the thread helpers between annotate and
report lost some perf report specifics.
thread__insert_map() had its most uptodate version in perf
report which cared about partial map overlapping. In case of
overlap between two maps, perf annotate's version removes the
whole old map without considering if it partially or
absolutely overlaps the new map.
We exported the odd version, change it by using the perf
report version.

Linus reported this perf annotate segfault:

Segmentation fault
#0 map__clone (self=<value optimized out>) at builtin-annotate.c:236
#1 thread__fork (self=<value optimized out>) at builtin-annotate.c:372
The bug here was that builtin-annotate.c was a copy of
builtin-report.c and a threading related fix to builtin-report.c
didnt get propagated to builtin-annotate.c ...

The _XOPEN_SOURCE* defines are not really needed on Linux and
it's not like we'll port this to AIX ;-)
The define also broke the build with gcc 4.4.1:
CC util/trace-event-parse.o
In file included from util/trace-event-parse.c:32:
util/util.h:43:1: error: "_XOPEN_SOURCE" redefined
So remove them.

The ftrace event format parser handles the usual casts but not
the cast to pointers. Such casts have been introduced recently
with the module trace events and raise the following parsing
error:
Fatal: bad op token )
This is because it considers the "*" character as a binary
operator. Make it then aware of casts to pointers.

You can enable a counter's PERF_SAMPLE_RAW attribute in two
fashions:
- using the -R option (every counters get PERF_SAMPLE_RAW)
- using the :record suffix in a trace event counter name
Currently we record the events info in a trace.info file from
perf record when the former method is used but we omit it with
the latter.
Check both situations.
