perf stat: Fix handling of --for-each-cgroup with --bpf-counters to match non BPF mode

The --for-each-cgroup can have the same cgroup multiple times, but this
confuses BPF counters (since they have the same cgroup id), making only
the last cgroup events to be counted.

Let's check the cgroup name before adding a new entry to the cgroups
list.

Before:

$ sudo ./perf stat -a --bpf-counters --for-each-cgroup /,/ sleep 1

Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

3,385,168 branch-misses / # 5.87% of all branches

After it becomes similar to the non-BPF mode:

$ sudo ./perf stat -a --bpf-counters --for-each-cgroup /,/ sleep 1

Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

8,013.38 msec cpu-clock / # 7.998 CPUs utilized

Committer notes:

As a reminder, to test with BPF counters one has to use BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1
in the make command line and have clang/llvm installed when building
perf, otherwise the --bpf-counters option will not be available:

# perf stat -a --bpf-counters --for-each-cgroup /,/ sleep 1
Error: unknown option `bpf-counters'

Usage: perf stat [<options>] [<command>]

-a, --all-cpus system-wide collection from all CPUs

perf stat: Enable BPF counter with --for-each-cgroup

Recently bperf was added to use BPF to count perf events for various
purposes. This is an extension for the approach and targetting to
cgroup usages.

Unlike the other bperf, it doesn't share the events with other
processes but it'd reduce unnecessary events (and the overhead of
multiplexing) for each monitored cgroup within the perf session.

When --for-each-cgroup is used with --bpf-counters, it will open
cgroup-switches event per cpu internally and attach the new BPF
program to read given perf_events and to aggregate the results for
cgroups. It's only called when task is switched to a task in a
different cgroup.

The metricgroup__copy_metric_events() is to handle metrics events when

The perf_stat__collect_metric_expr() is also called in case an event has
a metric directly.

During the copy, it references evsel by index as the evlist now has
cloned evsels for the given cgroup.

empty implementations of those two functions to fix it.

perf stat: Add --for-each-cgroup option

The --for-each-cgroup option is a syntax sugar to monitor large number
of cgroups easily. Current command line requires to list all the events
and cgroups even if users want to monitor same events for each cgroup.
This patch addresses that usage by copying given events for each cgroup
on user's behalf.

For instance, if they want to monitor 6 events for 200 cgroups each they
should write 1200 event names (with -e) AND 1200 cgroup names (with -G)
on the command line. But with this change, they can just specify 6
events and 200 cgroups with a new option.

A simpler example below: It wants to measure 3 events for 2 cgroups ('A'
and 'B'). The result is that total 6 events are counted like below.

$ perf stat -a -e cpu-clock,cycles,instructions --for-each-cgroup A,B sleep 1

perf tools: Use zfree() where applicable

In places where the equivalent was already being done, i.e.:

free(a);
a = NULL;

And in placs where struct members are being freed so that if we have
some erroneous reference to its struct, then accesses to freed members
will result in segfaults, which we can detect faster than use after free
to areas that may still have something seemingly valid.

perf tools: Fix snprint warnings for gcc 8

With gcc 8 we get new set of snprintf() warnings that breaks the
compilation, one example:

tests/mem.c: In function ‘check’:
tests/mem.c:19:48: error: ‘%s’ directive output may be truncated writing \
up to 99 bytes into a region of size 89 [-Werror=format-truncation=]
snprintf(failure, sizeof failure, "unexpected %s", out);

The gcc docs says:

To avoid the warning either use a bigger buffer or handle the
function's return value which indicates whether or not its output
has been truncated.

Given that all these warnings are harmless, because the code either
properly fails due to uncomplete file path or we don't care for
truncated output at all, I'm changing all those snprintf() calls to
scnprintf(), which actually 'checks' for the snprint return value so the
gcc stays silent.

perf cgroup: Make the cgroup name be const char *

The usual thing is for a constructor to allocate space for its members,
not to require that the caller pass a pre-allocated 'name' and then, at
its destructor, to free something not allocated by it.

Fix it by making cgroup__new() to receive a const char pointer, then
allocate cgroup->name that then can continue to be freed at
cgroup__delete(), balancing the alloc/free operations inside the cgroup
struct methods.

This eases calling evlist__findnew_cgroup() from the custom 'perf trace'
cgroup parser, that will only call parse_cgroups() when the '-G cgroup'
is passed on the command line after '-e event' entries, when it'll
behave just like 'perf stat' and 'perf record', i.e. the previous
parse_cgroup() users that mandate that -G only can come after a -e.
