Subject: [PATCH v2 1/6] perf: Add new types PERF_TYPE_KPROBE and PERF_TYPE_UPROBE

Two new perf types, PERF_TYPE_KPROBE and PERF_TYPE_UPROBE, are added
to allow creating [k,u]probe with perf_event_open. These [k,u]probe
are associated with the file decriptor created by perf_event_open,
thus are easy to clean when the file descriptor is destroyed.

kprobe_func and uprobe_path are added to union config1 for pointers
to function name for kprobe or binary path for uprobe.

kprobe_addr and probe_offset are added to union config2 for kernel
address (when kprobe_func is NULL), or [k,u]probe offset.
