[PATCH v11 29/39] perf record: Enable passing bpf object file to --event

[Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com>]

By introducing new rules in tools/perf/util/parse-events.[ly], this
patch enables 'perf record --event bpf_file.o' to select events by
an eBPF object file. It calls parse_events_load_bpf() to load that
file, which uses bpf__prepare_load() and finally calls
bpf_object__open() for the object files.

Instead of introducing evsel to evlist during parsing, events
selected by eBPF object files are appended separately. The reason
is:

 1. During parsing, the probing points have not been initialized.

 2. Currently we are unable to call add_perf_probe_events() twice,
    therefore we have to wait until all such events are collected,
    then probe all points by one call.

The real probing and selecting is reside in following patches.

'bpf-loader.[ch]' are introduced in this patch. Which will be the
interface between perf and libbpf. bpf__prepare_load() resides in
bpf-loader.c. Dummy functions should be used because bpf-loader.c is
available only when CONFIG_LIBBPF is on.
