Subject: [PATCH v3 1/2] perf sdt: add scanning of sdt probles arguments
During a "perf buildid-cache --add" command, the section
".note.stapsdt" of the "added" binary is scanned in order to list the
available SDT markers available in a binary. The parts containing the
probes arguments were left unscanned.
The whole section is now parsed; the probe arguments are extracted for
later use.
