Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] perf test: Add DWARF callchain conversion test

  $ ./perf test -vv "DWARF callchain"
   87: perf inject to convert DWARF callchains to regular ones:
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 1560328
  recording data with DWARF callchain
  [ perf record: Woken up 4 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.908 MB /tmp/perf-test.nM3WoW (105 samples) ]
  convert DWARF callchain using perf inject
  compare the both result excluding inlined functions
  ---- end(0) ----
   87: perf inject to convert DWARF callchains to regular ones         : Ok
