perf trace: Support 'strace' syscall event groups

I.e.:

$ cat ~/share/perf-core/strace/groups/file
access
chmod
creat
execve
faccessat
getcwd
lstat
mkdir
open
openat
quotact

perf trace: Support 'strace' syscall event groups

I.e.:

$ cat ~/share/perf-core/strace/groups/file
access
chmod

getcwd
lstat

quotactl
readlink
rename
rmdir
stat
statfs
symlink
unlink
$

Then, on a quiet desktop, try running this and then moving your mouse to
see the deluge of mouse related activity:

# perf probe 'vfs_getname=getname_flags:72 pathname=filename:string'
Added new event:
probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:72 with pathname=filename:string)

You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

perf record -e probe:vfs_getname -aR sleep 1
#
# trace --ev probe:vfs_getname --filter-pids 2232 -e file
0.042 (0.042 ms): mousetweaks/2235 open(filename: 0x14e3910, mode: 438 ) ...
0.042 ( ): probe:vfs_getname:(ffffffff812230bc) pathname="/home/acme/.icons/Adwaita/cursors/xterm")
0.100 (0.100 ms): mousetweaks/2235 ... [continued]: open()) = -1 ENOENT No such file or directory
0.142 (0.018 ms): mousetweaks/2235 open(filename: 0x14c3c10, mode: 438 ) ...
0.142 ( ): probe:vfs_getname:(ffffffff812230bc) pathname="/home/acme/.icons/Adwaita/index.theme")
0.192 (0.069 ms): mousetweaks/2235 ... [continued]: open()) = -1 ENOENT No such file or directory
0.230 (0.017 ms): mousetweaks/2235 open(filename: 0x14c3c10, mode: 438 ) ...
0.230 ( ): probe:vfs_getname:(ffffffff812230bc) pathname="/usr/share/icons/Adwaita/cursors/xterm")
0.253 (0.041 ms): mousetweaks/2235 ... [continued]: open()) = 14
0.459 (0.008 ms): mousetweaks/2235 open(filename: 0x14e3910, mode: 438 ) ...
0.459 ( ): probe:vfs_getname:(ffffffff812230bc) pathname="/home/acme/.icons/Adwaita/cursors/left_side")
0.468 (0.017 ms): mousetweaks/2235 ... [continued]: open()) = -1 ENOENT No such file or directory

Need to combine that raw_syscalls:sys_enter(open) + probe:vfs_getname +
raw_syscalls:sys_exit(open) sequence...

Now, if you're bored, please write some more syscall groups, like the ones
in 'strace' and send it our way :-)
