If this service is enabled and the system rebooted, Systemd's initial
attempt to start this unit file may fail in case the kvm module is not
loaded. Since we did not specify a delay for the retries, Systemd
restarts with a minimum delay a number of times before giving up and
disabling the service. Which means a subsequent kvm module load will
have kvm running without monitoring.
Adding a delay to fix this.

The new counters halt_poll_success_ns and halt_poll_fail_ns do not count
events. Instead they provide a time, and mess up our statistics. Therefore,
we should exclude them.
Removal is currently implemented with an exempt list. If more counters like
these appear, we can think about a more general rule like excluding all
fields name "*_ns", in case that's a standing convention.

To integrate with logrotate, we have a signal handler that will re-open
the logfile.
Assuming we have a systemd unit file with
ExecStart=kvm_stat -dtc -s 10 -L /var/log/kvm_stat.csv
ExecReload=/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID
and a logrotate config featuring
postrotate
/bin/systemctl reload kvm_stat.service
endscript
Then the overall flow will look like this:
(1) systemd starts kvm_stat, logging to A.
(2) At some point, logrotate runs, moving A to B.
kvm_stat continues to write to B at this point.
(3) After rotating, logrotate restarts the kvm_stat unit via systemctl.
(4) The kvm_stat unit sends a SIGHUP to kvm_stat, finally making it
switch over to writing to A again.
Note that in order to keep the structure of the cvs output in tact, we
make sure to, in contrast to the standard log format, only write the
header once at the beginning of a file. This implies that the header is
suppressed when appending to an existing file. Unlike with the standard
format, where we append to an existing file by starting out with a
header.

This now controls both, the refresh rate of the interactive mode as well
as the logging mode. Which, as a consequence, means that the default of
logging mode is now 3s, too (use command line switch '-s' to adjust to

optparse is deprecated for a while, hence switching over to argparse
(which also works with python2).
As a consequence, help output has some subtle changes, the most
significant one being that the options are all listed explicitly
instead of a universal '[options]' indicator. Also, some of the error
messages are phrased slightly different.
While at it, squashed a number of minor PEP8 issues.

The filter name is fixed to "exit_reason" for some kvm_exit events, no
matter what architect we have. Actually, the filter name ("exit_reason")
is only applicable to x86, meaning it's broken on other architects
including aarch64.
This fixes the issue by providing various kvm_exit filter names, depending
on architect we're on. Afterwards, the variable filter name is picked and
applied through ioctl(fd, SET_FILTER).

The fields filter would not work with child fields, as the respective
parents would not be included. No parents displayed == no childs displayed.
To reproduce, run on s390 (would work on other platforms, too, but would
require a different filter name):
- Run 'kvm_stat -d'
- Press 'f'
- Enter 'instruct'
Notice that events like instruction_diag_44 or instruction_diag_500 are not
displayed - the output remains empty.
With this patch, we will filter by matching events and their parents.
However, consider the following example where we filter by
instruction_diag_44:
kvm statistics - summary
regex filter: instruction_diag_44
Event Total %Total CurAvg/s
exit_instruction 276 100.0 12
instruction_diag_44 256 92.8 11
Total 276 12
Note that the parent ('exit_instruction') displays the total events, but
the childs listed do not match its total (256 instead of 276). This is
intended (since we're filtering all but one child), but might be confusing
on first sight.

The current shebang does not work in environments that only support python3
and have no python2 installed. Plus there does not seem to be a way to
support python2 and python3 at the same time. Since all known python3 issues
were fixed, and as python3 is the way to go, let's switch over.
Note that the code is still python2 compliant, so folks in bad use can
simply revert the shebang.

When filtering by guest (interactive commands 'p'/'g'), and the respective
guest was destroyed, detect when the guest is up again through the guest
name if possible.
I.e. when displaying events for a specific guest, it is not necessary
anymore to restart kvm_stat in case the guest is restarted.

For destroyed guests, kvm_stat essentially freezes with the last data
displayed. This is acceptable for users, in case they want to inspect the
final data. But it looks a bit irritating. Therefore, detect this situation
and display a respective indicator in the header.

When running with the DebugFS provider, removal of a guest can result in a
negative CurAvg/s, which looks rather confusing.
If so, suppress the body refresh and print a message instead.
To reproduce, have at least one guest A completely booted. Then start
another guest B (which generates a huge amount of events), then destroy B.
On the next refresh, kvm_stat should display a whole lot of negative values
in the CurAvg/s column.

When setting a PID filter in debugfs, we unnecessarily reset the
statistics, although there is no reason to do so. This behavior was
merely introduced with commit 9f114a03c6 "tools/kvm_stat: add
interactive command 'r'", most likely to mimic the behavior of
the tracepoints provider in this respect. However, there are plenty
of differences between the two providers, so there is no reason not
to take advantage of the possibility to filter by PID without
resetting the statistics.

With pid filtering active, when a guest is removed e.g. via virsh shutdown,
successive updates produce garbage.
Therefore, we add code to detect this case and prevent further body updates.
Note that when displaying the help dialog via 'h' in this case, once we exit
we're stuck with the 'Collecting data...' message till we remove the filter.

Python3 returns a float for a regular division - switch to a division
operator that returns an integer.
Furthermore, filters return a generator object instead of the actual
list - wrap result in yet another list, which makes it still work in
