Both python_scripting_ops and perl_scripting_ops have two global definitions.
One in trace-event-scripting.c and one in their respective scripting-engine
modules.

The issue is that depending on the linker order one definition or the other
is chosen. One is uninitialized (bss), while the other is initialized. If
the uninitialized version is chosen, then perf does not function properly.

This patch fixes this by adding the extern prefix to the definitions in
trace-event-scripting.c.

Add a perf script which shows packets processing and processed
time. It helps us to investigate networking or network devices.

If you want to use it, install perf and record perf.data like
following.

If you set script, perf gathers records until it ends.
If not, you must Ctrl-C to stop recording.

And if you want a report from record,

If you use some options, you can limit the output.
Option is below.

tx: show only tx packets processing
rx: show only rx packets processing
dev=: show processing on this device
debug: work with debug mode. It shows buffer status.

For example, if you want to show received packets processing
associated with eth4,

106133.171439sec cpu=0
  irq_entry(+0.000msec irq=24:eth4)
         |
  softirq_entry(+0.006msec)
         |
         |---netif_receive_skb(+0.010msec skb=f2d15900 len=100)
         |            |
         |      skb_copy_datagram_iovec(+0.039msec 10291::10291)
         |
  napi_poll_exit(+0.022msec eth4)

This perf script helps us to analyze the processing time of a
transmit/receive sequence.

Each histogram entry has a callchain root that stores the
callchain samples. However we forgot to initialize the
tracking of children hits of these roots, which then got
random values on their creation.

The root children hits is multiplied by the minimum percentage
of hits provided by the user, and the result becomes the minimum
hits expected from children branches. If the random value due
to the uninitialization is big enough, then this minimum number
of hits can be huge and eventually filter every children branches.

The end result was invisible callchains. All we need to
fix this is to initialize the children hits of the root.

When looking at a callchains enabled perf data file one can find it
tiresome to start with all callchains collapsed and then to have to go
one by one expanding them.

So associate 'E' with "Expand all callchains" and 'C' with "Collapse all
callchains".

This way now one can have the top level view and then switch to/from
having all callchains expanded.

More work is needed to allow expanding just from one branch down to its
leaves.

If we sort the histograms by comm, which is the default,
we need to merge some of them, typically different thread
histograms of a same process, or just same comm. But during
this merge, we forgot to merge callchains.

So imagine we have three threads (tids: 1000, 1001, 1002) that
belong to comm "foo".

tid 1000 got 100 events
tid 1001 got 10 events
tid 1002 got 3 events

Once we merge these histograms to get a per comm result, we'll
finally get:

"foo" got 113 events

The problem is if we merge 1000 and 1001 histograms into 1002, then
the end merge result, wrt callchains, will be only callchains that
belong to 1002.
This is because we haven't handled callchains in the merge. Only those
from one of the threads inside a common comm survive.

It means during this merge, we can lose a lot of callchains.

Fix this by implementing callchains merge and apply it on histograms
that collapse.

As part of ongoing effort to reduce the coupling with libnewt, browsers
are being changed to return the exit key.

The annotate browser is not returning it as expected by builtin-annotate
when annotating multiple symbols (when 'perf annotate' is called without
specifying a symbol name).

Fix it by returning the exit key and also adding the RIGHT key as a exit
key so that going to the next symbol in the TUI can work again.

ARM ELF files use symbols with special names $a, $t, $d to identify regions of
ARM code, Thumb code and data within code sections.  This can cause confusing
output from the perf tools, especially for partially stripped binaries, or
binaries containing user-added zero-sized symbols (which may occur in
hand-written assembler which hasn't been fully annotated with .size
directives).

This patch filters out these symbols at load time.
