Subject: [PATCH v1 1/2] perf record: Add 8-byte aligned event type PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED2
The original PERF_RECORD_COMPRESS is not 8-byte aligned, which can cause
asan runtime error:
# Build with asan
$ make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/perf DEBUG=1 EXTRA_CFLAGS="-O0 -g -fno-omit-frame-pointer -fsanitize=undefined"
# Test success with many asan runtime errors:
$ /tmp/perf/perf test "Zstd perf.data compression/decompression" -vv
83: Zstd perf.data compression/decompression:
...
util/session.c:1959:13: runtime error: member access within misaligned address 0x7f69e3f99653 for type 'union perf_event', which requires 13 byte alignment

Since there is no way to align compressed data in zstd compression, this
patch add a new event type `PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED2`, which adds a field
`data_size` to specify the actual compressed data size. The
`header.size` contains the total record size, including the padding at
the end to make it 8-byte aligned.
Tested with `Zstd perf.data compression/decompression`
