The main perf binary can receive a number of options that configure
working environment.  Add them to the completion script.

The '_get_comp_words_by_ref' function is available from the bash
completion v1.2 so that earlier version emits following warning:

  $ perf re<TAB>_get_comp_words_by_ref: command not found

Use older '_get_cword' method when the above function doesn't exist.

We want to reduce the impact that each of the builtins has on perf as a
whole, so use the superclassing of perf_tool mechanizm to move its
config knobs to the stack, so that only if we use that tool, its impact
will be felt.

In this case is more about consistency, as the impact of this tool is
minimal.

Initially should look loosely like the venerable 'strace' tool, but
using the infrastructure in the perf tools to allow tracing extra
targets:

  [acme@sandy linux]$ perf trace --hell
  Error: unknown option `hell'

   usage: perf trace <PID>

      -p, --pid <pid>       trace events on existing process id
          --tid <tid>       trace events on existing thread id
          --all-cpus        system-wide collection from all CPUs
          --cpu <cpu>       list of cpus to monitor
          --no-inherit      child tasks do not inherit counters
          --mmap-pages <n>  number of mmap data pages
          --uid <user>      user to profile

  [acme@sandy linux]$

Those should have the same semantics as when using with 'perf record'.

It gets stuck sometimes, but hey, it works sometimes too!

In time it should support perf.data based workloads, i.e. it should have
a:
	-o filename

Command line option that will produce a perf.data file that can then be
used with 'perf trace' or any of the other perf tools (script, report,
etc).

It will also eventually have the set of functionalities described in the
previous 'trace' prototype by Thomas Gleixner:

   "Announcing a new utility: 'trace'"
   http://lwn.net/Articles/415728/

Also planned is to have some of the features suggested in the comments
of that LWN article.

Will be used for things like the args field in the raw_syscalls:sys_enter
tracepoint.

Implement strval with it, its basicaly strval returning void *.

Not event_format->name, that doesn't contains the sys: part.

Because that is what it really does, i.e. it applies the filters that
were parsed from the command line and stashed into the evsels they refer
to.

We'll need the set_filter method name to actually apply a filter to all
the evsels in an evlist, for instance, to ask that a syswide tracer
doesn't trace itself.

It will set up a syscall open tracepoint event, generate an open with
invalid flags, then check those flags were the ones reported in the
tracepoint fired.

For the filename we need vfs:getname, but that will go thru some more
iterations as the vfs getname codebase is going thru changes lately.

When that is in I'll just check that the perf_evsel__newtp constructor
is not bailing out and then add it to the evlist, catch the event and
check the filename against the one used in the 'open' call used to
trigger the event.
