8229289b60 perf report: Fix comm sorting
Since we can (and do) change comm strings during the collection
phase, we cannot actually sort on them to build the histogram.
Therefore add an (optional) third sorting phase to collapse the
histrogram.

Comm sorting now builds the histrogram on threads and then in
the collapse phase collects all threads with the same comm.

This collapsed histogram is then reversed and sorted on events.

8ce998d669 perf_counter tools: Cover PLT symbols too
PLT, the Program Linking Table, is used with the dynamic linker to
allow PIC code in executables and shared objects to figure out
where functions are in other shared objects.

It is one of the sources of unknown/unresolved symbols - this patch
does what binutils figures out when you ask it to disassembly.

[acme@emilia ~]$ nm `which perf` | grep GLIBC_2\.7
                 U __isoc99_sscanf@@GLIBC_2.7
[acme@emilia ~]$

After:
[acme@emilia ~]$ perf
usage: perf [--version] [--help] COMMAND [ARGS]

The most commonly used perf commands are:
   record   Run a command and record its profile into perf.data
   report   Read perf.data (created by perf record) and display the
profile
   stat     Run a command and gather performance counter statistics
   top      Run a command and profile it

The Git code expects there to be perf-* commands - but since Perf
is a 'pure' utility with no dash commands anymore, this old assumption
of Git does not hold anymore. Remove that error check.

Import Git's nice .txt => {man/html/pdf} generation machinery.

Fix various errors in the Documentation/perf*.txt description as well.

Also fix a bug in builtin-help: we'd map 'perf help top' to 'perftop'
if only the 'perf' binary is in the default PATH - confusing the manpage
logic. I dont fully understand why Git did it this way - but i suppose
it's a migration artifact from their migration from standalone git-xyz
commands to 'git xyz' commands. The perf tools were always using the
modern form so it's not an issue there.

perf_counter tools: Add locking to perf top

We need to protect the active_symbols list as two threads change it:
the main thread adding entries to the head and the display thread
decaying entries from any place in the list.

Also related: take a snapshot of syme->count[0] before using it to
calculate the weight and to show the same number used in this calc when
displaying the symbol usage.

The advantage of that column is that it is characteristic of the
execution workflow, regardless of runtime. Hence 'hackbench 10'
will look similar to 'hackbench 15' - while the absolute counter
values are very different.
