Currently, we only have 'perf trace' augmentation tests for enum
arguments. This patch adds tests for more general syscall arguments,
such as struct pointers, strings, and buffers.
These tests utilize the 'perf config' system to configure 'the perf trace'
output, as suggested by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@kernel.org>.
Committer testing:
root@number:~# perf test "BTF general"
109: perf trace BTF general tests : Ok
root@number:~# perf test -v "BTF general"
109: perf trace BTF general tests : Ok
root@number:~# perf test -vv "BTF general"
109: perf trace BTF general tests:
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 1410451

It still fails sometimes, for instance when tested with:
root@number:~# perf stat --null -r 10 perf test "BTF general"
109: perf trace BTF general tests : Ok
109: perf trace BTF general tests : Ok
109: perf trace BTF general tests : Ok
109: perf trace BTF general tests : Ok
109: perf trace BTF general tests : FAILED!
109: perf trace BTF general tests : Ok
109: perf trace BTF general tests : Ok
109: perf trace BTF general tests : FAILED!
109: perf trace BTF general tests : Ok

Performance counter stats for 'perf test BTF general' (10 runs):

But we can go on from here and fix things up with followup patches.
