perf_counter tools: Add locking to perf top

We need to protect the active_symbols list as two threads change it:
the main thread adding entries to the head and the display thread
decaying entries from any place in the list.

Also related: take a snapshot of syme->count[0] before using it to
calculate the weight and to show the same number used in this calc when
displaying the symbol usage.

Add new column that normalizes counter results by
'nanoseconds spent running' unit.

Before:

 Performance counter stats for '/home/mingo/hackbench':

   10469.403605  task clock ticks     (msecs)
          75502  context switches     (events)
           9501  CPU migrations       (events)

    31975676185  CPU cycles           (events)

      108740581  cache references     (events)
       54606088  cache misses         (events)

 Wall-clock time elapsed:   810.514504 msecs

After:

 Performance counter stats for '/home/mingo/hackbench':

   10469.403605  task clock ticks     (msecs)
          75502  context switches     #        0.007 M/sec
           9501  CPU migrations       #        0.001 M/sec
          36158  pagefaults           #        0.003 M/sec

       54606088  cache misses         #        5.216 M/sec

 Wall-clock time elapsed:   810.514504 msecs

The advantage of that column is that it is characteristic of the
execution workflow, regardless of runtime. Hence 'hackbench 10'
will look similar to 'hackbench 15' - while the absolute counter
values are very different.

Tighten up our C code requirements:

 - disallow warnings
 - disallow declarations-mixed-with-statements
 - require proper prototypes
 - require C99 (with gcc extensions)

Fix up a ton of problems these measures unearth:

 - unused functions
 - needlessly global functions
 - missing prototypes
 - code mixed with declarations

Don't let funny events confuse us, stick to what we know and
try to find sensible data again.

If we find an unknown event, check we're still u64 aligned, and
increment by one u64. This ensures we're bound to happen upon a
valid event soon.

method that just dumps the records as they are read in - then we exit.
