Pull perf/core improvements, fixes and code move from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
* Initialize 'page_size' variable in the python binding, this was sent
for perf/urgent by mistake, then when merging Ingo removed it, fixing
the problem for perf/urgent, but when perf/urgent was merged with
perf/core, where that initialization is needed, made the python
binding mmap call to fail, fix it by initializing page_size again.
* Add a browser for 'perf script' and make it available from the report
and annotate browsers. It does filtering to find the scripts that
handle events found in the perf.data file used. From Feng Tang
* Move some functions from symbol.c to more appropriate files, creating
dso.[ch] in the process, no code changes. From Jiri Olsa
* Fix mmap error output message for when perf_mmap fails and returns
!-EPERM, where the default for mmap_pages, INT_MAX, was causing a
!power of 2 error message, fix from Jiri Olsa.

Create a script browser, so that user can check all the available
scripts for current perf data file and run them inside the main perf
report or annotation browsers, for all perf samples or for samples
belong to one thread/symbol.
Please be noted: current script browser is only for report use, and
doesn't cover the record phase, IOW it must run against one existing
perf data file.
The work flow is, users can use function key to list all the available
scripts for current perf data file in system and chose one, which will
be executed with popen("perf script -s xxx.xx",) and all the output
lines are put into one ui browser, pressing 'q' or left arrow key will
make it return to previous browser.

As suggested by Arnaldo, many scripts have their own usages and need
capture specific events or tracepoints, so only those scripts whose
target events match the events in current perf data file should be
listed in the script browser menu.
This patch will add the event match checking, by opening "xxx-record"
script to cherry pick out all events name and comparing them with
those inside the perf data file.

Currently many perf commands annotate/evlist/report/script/lock etc all
support "-i" option to chose a specific perf data, and all of them
create a local "input_name" to save the file name for that perf data.
Since most of these commands need it, we can add a global variable for
it, also it can some other benefits:
1. When calling script browser inside hists/annotation browser, it needs
to know the perf data file name to run that script.
2. For further feature like runtime switching to another perf data file,
this variable can also help.

In order to measure kernel builds, one has to do some pre/post cleanup
work in order to do the repeat build.
So provide --pre and --post command hooks to allow doing just that.
perf stat --repeat 10 --null --sync --pre 'make -s O=defconfig-build/clean' \
-- make -s -j64 O=defconfig-build/ bzImage

You may want to know where and how long a task is sleeping. A callchain
may be found in sched_switch and a time slice in stat_iowait, so I add
handler in perf inject for merging this events.
My code saves sched_switch event for each process and when it meets
stat_iowait, it reports the sched_switch event, because this event
contains a correct callchain. By another words it replaces all
stat_iowait events on proper sched_switch events.
I use the next sequence of commands for testing:
perf record -e sched:sched_stat_sleep -e sched:sched_switch \
-e sched:sched_process_exit -g -o ~/perf.data.raw \
~/test-program
perf inject -v -s -i ~/perf.data.raw -o ~/perf.data
perf report --stdio -i ~/perf.data

Ingo reported (again!) that 'make clean' on perf/traceevent does not
work due to some reason with system header file. Quotes Ingo:
"Note that the old dependency related build failure thought to be
fixed in commit 860df5833e is back:
make[1]: *** No rule to make target
`/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.7.0/include/stddef.h', needed by `.trace-seq.d'. Stop.
'make clean' itself does not work in libtraceevent:
comet:~/tip/tools/lib/traceevent> make clean
make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.7.0/include/stddef.h', needed by `.trace-seq.d'. Stop.
So I had to clean it out manually:
comet:~/tip/tools/lib/traceevent> git ls-files --others | xargs rm
comet:~/tip/tools/lib/traceevent>
and then things build fine."
Try to fix it by excluding system headers from dependency generation.

* Don't stop synthesizing threads when one vanishes, this is for
the existing threads when we start a tool like trace.
* Use sched:sched_stat_runtime to provide a thread summary, this

There's a portion in the "perf list" output refering to the exact
specification of raw hardware events.
Since this description is in the perf-list manpage, try to build and
install the man pages, warning the user when that is not possible

Platforms (e.g., VM's) without support for precise mode get a confusing
error message. e.g.,
$ perf record -e cycles:p -a -- sleep 1
Error: sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 95 (Operation not
supported). /bin/dmesg may provide additional information.
No hardware sampling interrupt available. No APIC? If so then you can
boot the kernel with the "lapic" boot parameter to force-enable it.
sleep: Terminated
which is not clear that precise mode might be the root problem. With this
patch:
$ perf record -e cycles:p -fo /tmp/perf.data -- sleep 1
Error:
'precise' request may not be supported. Try removing 'p' modifier
sleep: Terminated
v2: softened message to 'may not be' supported per Robert's suggestion
