Perf record with verbose=2 already prints this information along with
whole lot of other traces which requires lot of scrolling. Introduce
an option to print only perf_event_open() arguments and return value.

Committer notes:
Just like the 'verbose' variable this new 'debug_peo_args' needs to be
added to util/python.c, since we don't link the debug.o file in the
python binding, which ended up making 'perf test python' fail with:
# perf test -v python
18: 'import perf' in python :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 19237
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: /tmp/build/perf/python/perf.so: undefined symbol: debug_peo_args
test child finished with -1
---- end ----
'import perf' in python: FAILED!
#
After adding that new variable to util/python.c:
# perf test -v python
18: 'import perf' in python :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 22364
test child finished with 0
---- end ----
'import perf' in python: Ok

Move the PERF_RECORD_THROTTLE event definition into libperf's event.h
header include.
In order to keep libperf simple, we switch 'u64/u32/u16/u8' types used
events to their generic '__u*' versions.
Perf added 'u*' types mainly to ease up printing __u64 values as stated
in the linux/types.h comment:
/*
* We define u64 as uint64_t for every architecture
* so that we can print it with "%"PRIx64 without getting warnings.
*
* typedef __u64 u64;
* typedef __s64 s64;
*/
Add and use new PRI_lu64 and PRI_lx64 macros for that. Use extra '_' to
ease up the reading and differentiate them from standard PRI*64 macros.

Committer notes:
Fixup the PRI_l[ux]64 macros on 32-bit arches, conditionally defining it
with that extra 'l' modifier only on arches where __u64 is long long,
leaving it aside on 32-bit arches.
