Don't include git tag in .so suffix

The git hash was being include in the shared library name. This leads to
polution of the /usr/lib directory. Instead, just use the latest tag in
the library suffix.

As a developer, you will need to clean up the /usr/lib/libbcc* files
whenever a new tag is created.

Always autoload k[ret]probe__ prefixed functions

This will shorten some examples, no longer requiring them to call
attach_kprobe.

Improve coverage for kprobe event_re

This version of the mainline kernel supports the bridge and vlan learning examples (i.e. the additional APIs). Will allow new users to run all examples provided.

This makes the attachment of kprobes to arbitrary events more robust.

Issue 1: Functions with '.' characters should not have similarly named
 probes.
Issue 2: Functions in the blacklist should not be attached to.
Issue 3: Some functions matched by regex cannot actually be attached to,
 despite not being in the blacklist...possibly the blacklist is outdated?
 Instead, warn instead of error during bulk regex attach.
Issue 4: Attaching to large numbers of kprobes gets to be very slow. For
 now, leave this unresolved. For reasonably sized regexes, startup times
 may be acceptable, and shutdown times are actually the worse part. To
 speed up shutdown, one could add the following after the last
 attach_kprobe to disable auto-cleanup:
  ```
  from bcc import open_kprobes
  open_kprobes = {}
  ```
 Then, once the program is exited, one must manually
  echo "" > kprobe_events

Some numbers:
attaching to event_re='tcp_*': 2 sec startup, 15 sec shutdown
attaching to event_re='b*': 10 sec startup, 75 sec shutdown
attaching to event_re='*': unknown (>20 min) startup, unknown shutdown
The slowdowns appear to be exponential, doubtful that '*' will ever
complete.

Autoload kprobes for all types of trace_* functions

Signed-off-by: Brenden Blanco <bblanco@plumgrid.com>

The previous patch #195 for autoloading of kprobes only did it for
trace_print. Turn this feature on for all trace_* functions. This
requires that these functions are also no longer staticmethods.

Enable the feature in examples/disksnoop.py

Add debug and fix the inline replace of kprobe args

The way in which args 1+ were being replaced in the C file was
fragile. Instead, assign the registers from ptregs into the function
arguments as the first statement(s) in the body of the function.
e.g.:
int sys_clone(struct ptregs *ctx, struct request *req) {
  // do something with req
}
becomes:
int sys_clone(struct ptregs *ctx, struct request *req) {
  req = ctx->di;
  // do something with req

* Many times it is useful to print out the C file after the
  BFrontendAction has run.

Change auto-loading behavior of trace_print

Since kprobe functions will have a different prototype than the kernel
symbols they are attaching to, require that the user prefix the trace
function with a kprobe__ name to denote intent. kretprobe__ prefix is
also supported.
Signed-off-by: Brenden Blanco <bblanco@plumgrid.com>

* As @brendangregg pointed out, users will probably assume that
  handily-named C functions that can be auto-loaded will be all the
  time, rather than just in the singleton case. This is pretty easy to
  implement, so changing the behavior.

Support automatic kprobe event detection in common case

* In the simple case, a user only creates 1 C function to be used with
  kprobes. Detect this common case and don't require the user to repeat
  themselves by passing the fn_name to attach_kprobe().
  e.g.: BPF(text='int sys_clone(void *ctx) {/*do stuff*/}').trace_print()
