When profiling the kernel with the 'srcfile' sort key it's common to
"get stuck" in include. For example a lot of code uses current or other
inlines, so they get accounted to some random include file. This is not
very useful as a high level categorization.
For example just profiling the idle loop usually shows mostly inlines,
so you never see the actual cpuidle file.
This patch changes the 'srcfile' sort key to always unwind the inline
stack using BFD/DWARF. So we always account to the base function that
called the inline.
In a few cases include is still shown (for example for MSR accesses),
but that is because they get inlining expanded as part of assigning to a
global function pointer. For the majority it works fine though.
v2: Use simpler while loop. Add maximum iteration count.

For perf report/script srcline currently only the base file name of the
source file is printed. This is a good default because it usually fits
on the screen.
But in some cases we want to know the full file name, for example to
aggregate hits per file.
In the later case we need more than the base file name to resolve file
naming collisions: for example the kernel source has ~70 files named
"core.c"
It's also useful as input to post processing tools which want to point
to the right file.
Add a flag to allow full file name output.
Add an option to perf report/script to enable this option.

Commit 85c116a6cb ("perf callchain: Make get_srcline fall back to sym+offset")
introduces asprintf() call and matches '%ld' to a u64 argument, which is
incorrect on ARM:
CC /home/wn/util/srcline.o
util/srcline.c: In function 'get_srcline':
util/srcline.c:297:6: error: format '%ld' expects argument of type 'long int', but argument 4 has type 'u64' [-Werror=format]
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
make[1]: *** [/home/wn/util/srcline.o] Error 1
In addition, all users of get_srcline() use u64 addr, and libbfd
also use 64 bit bfd_vma as address. This patch also fix
prototype of get_srcline() and addr2line() to use u64 addr
instead of unsigned long.

When the source line is not found fall back to sym + offset. This is
generally much more useful than a raw address.
For this we need to pass in the symbol from the caller.
For some callers it's awkward to compute, so we stay at the old
behaviour.

For lbr-as-callgraph we need to see the line number in the history,
because many LBR entries can be in a single function, and just
showing the same function name many times is not useful.
When the history code is configured to sort by address, also try to
resolve the address to a file:srcline and display this in the browser.
If that doesn't work still display the address.
This can be also useful without LBRs for understanding which call in a large
function (or in which inlined function) called something else.

Same reason as for dso->short_name, it may point to a const string, and

Looking up an ip's source file name and line number does not succeed
always. Current logic disables the lookup for a dso entirely on any
failure. Change it so that disabling never happens if there has ever
been a successful lookup for that dso but disable if the first 123
lookups fail.

When the srcline sort key is used , the external addr2line utility needs
to be run for each hist entry to get the srcline info. This can consume
quite a time if one has a huge perf.data file.
So rather than executing the external utility, implement it internally
and just call it. We can do it since we've linked with libbfd already.
