perf tools: add NO_BACKTRACE for application self-debugging

perf has support for self-debugging by defining dump_stack function.
This function uses backtrace and backtrace_symbols functions defined as
GNU extensions.

In Android, bionic does not offer support for these functions and
compilation will fail with the following error:

target C: libperf <= tools/perf/util/util.c
tools/perf/util/util.c:4:22: fatal error: execinfo.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

Add a compile-time option (NO_BACKTRACE) to enable or disable
self-debugging functionality in perf. This can also help in debugging
since it offers the possibility to turn on/off printing the backtrace.

Adding V=1 you see that the include argument for the arch is
'-Iarch/i386/include' is wrong. It is supposed to be -Iarch/x86/include
per the redefinition of ARCH in the Makefile.

According to the make manual,
http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html#Override-Directive:
"If a variable has been set with a command argument (see Overriding
Variables), then ordinary assignments in the makefile are ignored. If
you want to set the variable in the makefile even though it was set
with a command argument, you can use an override directive ..."

Make it so.

end of the path, behind /usr/include/slang and /usr/include/gtk-2.0 if
use of the respective libraries is enabled. Thus the '#include

/usr/include/perf.h if it exists.

perf tools: Support for DWARF CFI unwinding on post processing

This brings the support for DWARF cfi unwinding on perf post
processing. Call frame informations are retrieved and then passed
to libunwind that requests memory and register content from the
applications.

Adding unwind object to handle the user stack backtrace based
on the user register values and user stack dump.

The unwind object access the libunwind via remote interface
and provides to it all the necessary data to unwind the stack.

The unwind interface provides following function:
unwind__get_entries

And callback (specified in above function) to retrieve
the backtrace entries:
typedef int (*unwind_entry_cb_t)(struct unwind_entry *entry,
void *arg);

perf symbols: Support minimal build without libelf

Now we have isolated all ELF-specific stuff, it's possible to build
without libelf. The output binary can do most of jobs but lacks (user
level) symbol information - kernel symbols are still accessable thanks
to the kallsyms.

To build perf without libelf (elfutils), give NO_LIBELF=1 to make.

For now, only 'perf probe' command is removed since it depends on
libelf/libdw heavily.

perf tools: Fix build error with bison 2.6

Bison 2.6 started to generate parse_events_parse() declaration in header. In
this case we have redundant redeclaration:

util/parse-events.c:29:5: error: redundant redeclaration of ‘parse_events_parse’ [-Werror=redundant-decls]
In file included from util/parse-events.c:14:0:
util/parse-events-bison.h:99:5: note: previous declaration of ‘parse_events_parse’ was here
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

Let's disable -Wredundant-decls for util/parse-events.c since it includes
header we can't control.

perf ui/gtk: Add GTK info_bar widget to browser window

The GtkInfoBar is a modern UI component to display messages without
bothering the main window. It'll be used for showing a warning message.

As the GtkInfoBar requires 2.18 (or newer) version of GTK+ library, add
availability check to Makefile too.
