Create a fake root directory for /proc/{version,modules,kallsyms} in
/tmp for testing. The kallsyms has a bad symbol in the module and it
causes the main map splitted. The test ensures it only has two maps -
kernel and the module and it finds the initial map after the module
without creating the split maps like [kernel].0 and so on.

Test that disabling rdpmc support via /sys/bus/event_source/cpu*/rdpmc
disables reading in the mmap (libperf read support will fallback to
using a system call).
Test all hybrid PMUs support rdpmc.
Ensure hybrid PMUs use the correct CPU to rdpmc the correct
event. Previously the test would open cycles or instructions with no
extended type then rdpmc it on whatever CPU. This could fail/skip due
to which CPU the test was scheduled upon.

New features like the BPF --filter support in perf record have made the
BPF event functionality somewhat redundant. As shown by commit
fcb027c1a4f6 ("perf tools: Revert enable indices setting syntax for BPF
map") and commit 14e4b9f428 ("perf trace: Raw augmented syscalls fix
libbpf 1.0+ compatibility") the BPF event support hasn't been well
maintained and it adds considerable complexity in areas like event
parsing, not least as '/' is a separator for event modifiers as well as
in paths.
This patch removes support in the event parser for BPF events and then
the associated functions are removed. This leads to the removal of whole
source files like bpf-loader.c. Removing support means that augmented
syscalls in perf trace is broken, this will be fixed in a later commit
adding support using BPF skeletons.
The removal of BPF events causes an unused label warning from flex
generated code, so update build to ignore it:
```
util/parse-events-flex.c:2704:1: error: label ‘find_rule’ defined but not used [-Werror=unused-label]
2704 | find_rule: /* we branch to this label when backing up */
```
Committer notes:
Extracted from a larger patch that was also removing the support for
linking with libllvm and libclang, that were an alternative to using an
external clang execution to compile the .c event source code into BPF
bytecode.
Testing it:
# perf trace -e /home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.c
event syntax error: '/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.c'

Add a test to check function symbols do not overlap and are not zero
length.
The main motivation for the test is to make it easier to review changes
to PLT symbol synthesis i.e. changes to dso__synthesize_plt_symbols().
By default the test uses the perf executable as a test DSO, but a
specific DSO can be specified via a new perf test option "--dso".
The test is useful in the following ways:
- Any DSO can be tested, even ones that do not run on the current
architecture. For example, using cross-compiled DSOs to see how
well perf handles different architectures.
- With verbose > 1 (e.g. -vv), all the symbols are printed, which
makes it easier to see issues.
- perf removes duplicate symbols and expands zero-length symbols
to reach the next symbol, however that is done before adding
synthesized symbols, so the test is checking those also.
Example:
$ perf test -v Symbols
74: Symbols :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 154918
Testing /home/user/bin/perf
Overlapping symbols:
7d000-7f3a0 g _init
7d030-7d040 g __printf_chk@plt
test child finished with -1
---- end ----
Symbols: FAILED!
Note the test fails because perf expands the _init symbol over the PLT
because there are no PLT symbols at that point, but then
dso__synthesize_plt_symbols() creates them.

x86 arch provides the testing for conversion between tsc and perf time,
the testing is located in x86 arch folder. Move this testing out from
x86 arch folder and place it into the common testing folder, so allows
to execute tsc testing on other architectures (e.g. Arm64).
This patch removes the inclusion of "arch-tests.h" from the testing
code, this can avoid building failure if any arch has no this header
file.
