Add a new 'perf record' option '--kcore' which will put a copy of
/proc/kcore, kallsyms and modules into a perf.data directory. Note, that
without the --kcore option, output goes to a file as previously.  The
tools' -o and -i options work with either a file name or directory name.

Example:

  $ sudo perf record --kcore uname

  $ sudo tree perf.data
  perf.data
  ├── kcore_dir
  │   ├── kallsyms
  │   ├── kcore
  │   └── modules
  └── data

  $ sudo perf script -v
  build id event received for vmlinux: 1eaa285996affce2d74d8e66dcea09a80c9941de
  build id event received for [vdso]: 8bbaf5dc62a9b644b4d4e4539737e104e4a84541
  Samples for 'cycles' event do not have CPU attribute set. Skipping 'cpu' field.
  Using CPUID GenuineIntel-6-8E-A
  Using perf.data/kcore_dir/kcore for kernel data
  Using perf.data/kcore_dir/kallsyms for symbols
