That is not present on some libelf implementations, such as the one used
in Alpine Linux: libelf-0.8.13.
This ends up disabling the SDT code, that relies on this function.
One alternative would be to provide an weak fallback implementation or
the open coded variant used by the buildid sysfs notes reading code.

The tools so far have been using the strerror_r() GNU variant, that
returns a string, be it the buffer passed or something else.
But that, besides being tricky in cases where we expect that the
function using strerror_r() returns the error formatted in a provided
buffer (we have to check if it returned something else and copy that
instead), breaks the build on systems not using glibc, like Alpine
Linux, where musl libc is used.
So, introduce yet another wrapper, str_error_r(), that has the GNU
interface, but uses the portable XSI variant of strerror_r(), so that
users rest asured that the provided buffer is used and it is what is
returned.

perf buildid-cache --add <binary> scans given binary and add
the SDT events to probe cache. "sdt_" prefix is appended for
all SDT providers to avoid event-name clash with other pre-defined
events. It is possible to use the cached SDT events as other cached
events, via perf probe --add "sdt_<provider>:<event>=<event>".
e.g.
----
# perf buildid-cache --add /lib/libc-2.17.so
# perf probe --cache --list | head -n 5
/usr/lib/libc-2.17.so (a6fb821bdf53660eb2c29f778757aef294d3d392):
sdt_libc:setjmp=setjmp
sdt_libc:longjmp=longjmp
sdt_libc:longjmp_target=longjmp_target
sdt_libc:memory_heap_new=memory_heap_new
# perf probe -x /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so \
-a sdt_libc:memory_heap_new=memory_heap_new
Added new event:
sdt_libc:memory_heap_new (on memory_heap_new
in /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e sdt_libc:memory_heap_new -aR sleep 1
# perf probe -l
sdt_libc:memory_heap_new (on new_heap+183 in /usr/lib/libc-2.17.so)
----
Note that SDT event entries in probe-cache file is somewhat different
from normal cached events. Normal one starts with "#", but SDTs are
starting with "%".

'perf probe --del' removes caches when '--cache' is given. Note that
the delete pattern is not the same as for normal events.
If you cached probes with event name, --del "eventname" works as
expected. However, if you skipped it, the cached probes doesn't have
actual event name. In that case --del "probe-desc" is required (wildcard
is acceptable). For example a cache entry has the probe-desc "vfs_read
$params", you can remove it with --del 'vfs_read*'.

Introduce perf_cache object and interfaces to create, add entries,
commit, and delete the object.
perf_cache represents a file for the cached "perf probe" definitions on
one binary file or vmlinux which has its own build id. The probe cache
file is located under the build-id cache directory of the target binary,
as below;
<perf-debug-dir>/.build-id/<BU>/<ILDID>/probe

On kernel with only one out of CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENTS and
CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENTS enabled, 'perf probe -d' causes a segfault because
perf_del_probe_events() calls probe_file__get_events() with a negative
fd.
This patch fixes it by adding parameter validation at the entry of
probe_file__get_events() and probe_file__get_rawlist(). Since they are
both non-static public functions (in .h file), parameter verifying is
required.
v1 -> v2: Verify fd at the head of probe_file__get_rawlist() instead of
checking at call site (suggested by Masami and Arnaldo at [1,2]).

The del_perf_probe_events() does 2 things:
1. find existing events which match to filter
2. delete such trace events from kernel
But sometimes we need to do something with the trace events. So split
the funtion into two, so that it can access intermediate trace events
name using strlist if needed.
