Subject: [PATCH v4 06/16] perf tools: Support perf event alias name

From: He Kuang <hekuang@...wei.com>

This patch adds new bison rules for specifying an alias name to a perf
event, which allows cmdline refer to previous defined perf event through
its name. With this patch user can give alias name to a perf event using
following cmdline:

 # perf record -e mypmu=cycles ...

If alias is not provided (normal case):

 # perf record -e cycles ...

It will be set to event's name automatically ('cycles' in the above
example).

To allow parser refer to existing event selector, pass event list to
'struct parse_events_evlist'. perf_evlist__find_evsel_by_alias() is
introduced to get evsel through its alias.

Test result:

Before this patch:

 # ./perf record -e evt=cycles usleep 10
 event syntax error: 'evt=cycles'
                      \___ parser error
 Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events
 [SNIP]

After this patch:

 # ./perf record -e evt=cycles usleep 10
 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
 [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.012 MB perf.data (2 samples) ]
