perf test: Fix perf test case 84 on s390

Perf test case 84 'perf pipe recording and injection test'
sometime fails on s390, especially on z/VM virtual machines.

This is caused by a very short run time of workload

# perf test -w noploop

which runs for 1 second. Occasionally this is not long
enough and the perf report has no samples for symbol noploop.

Fix this and enlarge the runtime for the perf work load
to 3 seconds. This ensures the symbol noploop is always
present. Since only s390 is affected, make this loop
architecture dependend.

perf inject: Lazy build-id mmap2 event insertion

Add -B option that lazily inserts mmap2 events thereby dropping all
mmap events without samples. This is similar to the behavior of -b
where only build_id events are inserted when a dso is accessed in a
sample.

File size savings can be significant in system-wide mode, consider:

$ perf record -g -a -o perf.data sleep 1
$ perf inject -B -i perf.data -o perf.new.data
$ ls -al perf.data perf.new.data
5147049 perf.data
2248493 perf.new.data

Give test coverage of the new option in pipe test.

perf inject: Add new mmap2-buildid-all option

Add an option that allows all mmap or mmap2 events to be rewritten as
mmap2 events with build IDs.

This is similar to the existing -b/--build-ids and --buildid-all options
except instead of adding a build_id event an existing mmap/mmap2 event
is used as a template and a new mmap2 event synthesized from it.

As mmap2 events are typical this avoids the insertion of build_id
events.

Add test coverage to the pipe test.

perf tests: Skip pipe test if noploop symbol is missing

perf pipe recording and injection test depends on finding symbol noploop in
perf, and fails if perf has been stripped and no debug object is available.
In that case, skip the test instead.

Example:

Before:

$ strip tools/perf/perf
$ tools/perf/perf buildid-cache -p `realpath tools/perf/perf`
$ tools/perf/perf test -v pipe

[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.000 MB - ]
cannot find noploop function in pipe #1
test child finished with -1
---- end ----
perf pipe recording and injection test: FAILED!

After:

$ tools/perf/perf test -v pipe
86: perf pipe recording and injection test :

perf does not have symbol 'noploop'
perf is missing symbols - skipping test
