[RFC PATCH 10/22] perf bpf: collect config section in object.

[Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com>]

eBPF programs are allowed to include 'config' sections, which contain
strings describe each bpf program. Config strings have identical format
as 'perf probe' defined. They describe positions and arguments used by
bpf programs.

Defining config strings separatly is allowed. For example:

  #define SEC(NAME) __attribute__((section(NAME), used))
  char _bpf_prog1_config[] SEC("config") = "bpf_prog1=kmem_cache_free%return";
  SEC("bpf_prog1")
  int bpf_prog1(struct pt_rets *ctx) {
  	....
  }
  char _bpf_prog2_config[] SEC("config") = "bpf_prog2=kmem_cache_free";
  SEC("bpf_prog2")
  int bpf_prog2(struct pt_rets *ctx) {
  	....
  }
  char other_config[] SEC("config") = "bpf_prog3=kmem_cache_alloc\n"
  				"bpf_prog4=__alloc_pages_nodemask%return";

To make further processing easiler, this patch converts '\0' in the
whole config strings into '\n'
