When replaying a previous record session, it'll get a segfault since it
doesn't initialize raw_syscalls enter/exit tracepoint's evsel->priv for
caching the format fields.

So fix it by properly initializing sys_enter/exit evsels that comes from
reading the perf.data file header.

We need to set this in evsels coming out of a perf.data file header, not
just for new ones created for live sessions.

So separate the code that caches the syscall entry/exit tracepoint
format fields into a new function that will be used in the next
changeset.

We were using it at 10 kHz, which doesn't work in machines where somehow
the max freq was auto reduced by the kernel:

[root@ssdandy ~]# perf test 19
19: Test software clock events have valid period values    : FAILED!
[root@ssdandy ~]# perf test -v 19
19: Test software clock events have valid period values    :

---- end ----
Test software clock events have valid period values: FAILED!
[root@ssdandy ~]#

[root@ssdandy ~]# cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate
7000

Reducing it to 500 Hz should be good enough for this test and also
shouldn't affect what it is testing.

But warn the user if it fails, informing the knob and the freq tried.

When perf_event_attr.mmap_data is set the kernel will generate
PERF_RECORD_MMAP events when non-exec (data, SysV mem) mmaps are
created, so we need to synthesize from /proc/pid/maps for existing
threads, as we do for exec mmaps.

Right now just 'perf record' does it, but any other tool that uses
perf_event__synthesize_thread(s|map) can request it.

Most uses of the evsel constructor are followed by a call to
perf_evlist__add with an idex of evlist->nr_entries, so make rename
the current constructor to perf_evsel__new_idx and remove the need
for passing the constructor for the common case.

We still need the new_idx variant because the way groups are handled,
with evsel->nr_members holding the number of entries in an evlist,
partitioning the evlist into sublists inside a single linked list.

This asks for a clarifying refactoring, but for now simplify the non
parser cases, so that tool writers don't have to bother with evsel idx
setting.

Each call to tui_progress__update() would forcibly refresh the entire
screen.  This is somewhat inefficient and causes noticable flickering
during the startup of perf-report, especially on large/slow terminals.

It looks like the force-refresh in tui_progress__update() serves no
purpose other than to clear the screen so that the progress bar of a
previous operation does not subsume that of a subsequent operation.  But
we can do just that in a much more efficient manner by clearing only the
region that a previous progress bar may have occupied before repainting
the new progress bar.  Then the force-refresh could be removed with no
change in visuals.

This patch disables the slow force-refresh in tui_progress__update() and
instead calls SLsmg_fill_region() on the entire area that the progress
bar may occupy before repainting it.  This change makes the startup of
perf-report much faster and appear much "smoother".

It turns out that this was a big bottleneck in the startup speed of
perf-report -- with this patch, perf-report starts up ~2x faster (1.1s
vs 0.55s) on my machines.  (These numbers were measured by running "time
perf report" on an 8MB perf.data and pressing 'q' immediately.)

Instead do the lookups just when creating the tracepoints, initially for
the most common, raw_syscalls:sys_{enter,exit}.

It works by having evsel->priv have a per tracepoint structure with
entries for the fields, for direct access, with the offset and a
function to get the value from the sample, doing the swap if needed.

Using a simple workload that does M millions write syscalls, we go from:

 # perf stat -i -e cycles /tmp/oldperf trace ./sc_hello 100 > /dev/null

feature_check needs to be invoked through call, and LDFLAGS may not be
set so quotes are needed.

Thanks to Jiri for spotting the quotes around LDFLAGS; that one was
driving me nuts with the upcoming timerfd feature detection.

Print related option help messages only when it failed to process
options.  While at it, modify parse_options_usage() to skip usage part
so that it can be used for showing multiple option help messages
naturally like below:

  $ perf stat -Bx, ls
  -B option not supported with -x

   usage: perf stat [<options>] [<command>]

      -B, --big-num         print large numbers with thousands' separators
      -x, --field-separator <separator>
                            print counts with custom separator

The -s (--sort) option was processed after normal option parsing so that
it cannot call the parse_options_usage() automatically.  Currently it
calls usage_with_options() which shows entire help messages for event
option.  Fix it by showing just -s options.

  $ perf top -s help
    Error: Unknown --sort key: `help'

   usage: perf top [<options>]

      -s, --sort <key[,key2...]>

Current option parser outputs whole option help string when it failed to
parse an option.  However this is not good for user if the command has
many option, she might feel hard which one is related easily.

Fix it by just showing the help message of the given option only.

In fact the "sample parsing" test does not automatically check new
sample type bits - they must be added to the comparison logic.

Doing that shows that the test fails because the functions
perf_event__synthesize_sample() and perf_event__sample_event_size() have
not been updated with PERF_SAMPLE_TRANSACTION either.
