Subject: [PATCH] perf tool: save cmdline from user in file header vs what is passed to record

A number of builtin commands process some user args and then pass the rest
to cmd_record. cmd_record then saves argc/argv that it receives into the
header of the perf data file. But this loses the arguments handled by the
first command -- ie., the real command line from the user. This patch saves
the command line as typed by the user rather than what was passed to
cmd_record.

As an example consider the command:
$ perf kvm --guest --host --guestmount=/tmp/guest-mount record
    -fo /tmp/perf.data -ag -- sleep 10

Currently the command saved to the header is:
 cmdline : /tmp/p3.5/perf record -o perf.data.kvm -fo /tmp/perf.data -ag -- sleep 1

(ignore the duplicated -o -- the first would be yet another bug with perf-kvm).

With this patch the command line saved to the header is:
 cmdline : /tmp/p3.5/perf kvm --guest --host --guestmount=/tmp/guest-mount
           record -fo /tmp/perf.data -ag -- sleep 1
