Add --list option for listing currently defined probe events
in the kernel. This shows events in below format;
[group:event] <perf-probe probe-definition>
for example:
[probe:schedule_0] schedule+30 cpu
Note that source file/line information is not supported yet.
So even if you added a probe by line, it will be shown in
<symbol+offset>.

This changes probe point syntax of perf-probe as below
<SRC>[:ABS_LN] [ARGS]
or
<FUNC>[+OFFS|%return][@SRC] [ARGS]
And event name and event group name are automatically
generated based on probe-symbol and offset as below.
perfprobes/SYMBOL_OFFSET[_NUM]
Where SYMBOL is the probing symbol and OFFSET is
the byte offset from the symbol.

Use die() for exiting perf-probe with errors. This replaces
perror_exit(), msg_exit() and fprintf()+exit() with die(), and
uses die() in semantic_error().
This also renames 'die' local variables to 'dw_die' for avoiding
name confliction.

Add perf probe subcommand that implements a kprobe-event setup helper
to the perf command.
This allows user to define kprobe events using C expressions (C line
numbers, C function names, and C local variables).
Usage
-----
perf probe [<options>] -P 'PROBEDEF' [-P 'PROBEDEF' ...]
-k, --vmlinux <file> vmlinux/module pathname
-P, --probe <p|r:[GRP/]NAME FUNC[+OFFS][@SRC]|@SRC:LINE [ARG ...]>
probe point definition, where
p: kprobe probe
r: kretprobe probe
GRP: Group name (optional)
NAME: Event name
FUNC: Function name
OFFS: Offset from function entry (in byte)
SRC: Source code path
LINE: Line number
ARG: Probe argument (local variable name or
kprobe-tracer argument format is supported.)
Changes in v4:
- Add _GNU_SOURCE macro for strndup().
Changes in v3:
- Remove -r option because perf always be used for online kernel.
- Check malloc/calloc results.
Changes in v2:
- Check synthesized string length.
- Rename perf kprobe to perf probe.
- Use spaces for separator and update usage comment.
- Check error paths in parse_probepoint().
- Check optimized-out variables.
