Add functions to utils.c to disable idle states through functions of
libcpupower. This will serve as the basis for disabling idle states
per cpu when running timerlat.

glibc commit 21571ca0d703 ("Linux: Add the sched_setattr
and sched_getattr functions") now also provides 'struct sched_attr'
and sched_setattr() which collide with the ones from rtla.

Define 'struct sched_attr' conditionally, similar to what strace did:

and rename rtla's version of sched_setattr() to avoid collision.

When the user sets -c <cpu-list> try to move rtla out of the <cpu-list>,
even without an -H option. This is useful to avoid having rtla
interfering with the workload.
This works by removing <cpu-list> from rtla's current affinity.
If rtla fails to move itself away it is not that of a problem as this
is an automatic measure.

To avoid having rtla interfering with the measurement threads, add an
option for the user to set the CPUs in which rtla should run. For
instance:
# rtla timerlat top -H 0 -c 1-7
Will place rtla in the CPU 0, while running the measurement threads in
the CPU 1-7.

The -C option sets a cgroup to the tracer's threads. If the -C option is
passed without arguments, the tracer's thread will inherit rtla's
cgroup. Otherwise, the threads will be placed on the cgroup passed
to the option.

Currently, timerlat displays a summary of the timerlat tracer results
saving the trace if the system hits a stop condition.
While this represented a huge step forward, the root cause was not
that is accessible to non-expert users.
The auto-analysis fulfill this gap by parsing the trace timerlat runs,
printing an intuitive auto-analysis.

Daniel Wagner reported to me that readproc.h got deprecated. Also,
while the procps-ng library was available on Fedora, it was not available
on RHEL, which is a piece of evidence that it was not that used.
rtla uses procps-ng only to find the PID of the tracers' workload.
I used the procps-ng library to avoid reinventing the wheel. But in this
case, reinventing the wheel took me less time than the time we already
took trying to work around problems.
Implement a function that reads /proc/ entries, checking if:
- the entry is a directory
- the directory name is composed only of digits (PID)
- the directory contains the comm file
- the comm file contains a comm that matches the tracers'
workload prefix.
- then return true; otherwise, return false.
And use it instead of procps-ng.

Add the --dma-latency to set /dev/cpu_dma_latency to the
specified value, this aims to avoid having exit from idle
states latencies that could be influencing the analysis.

This is a set of utils and tracer helper functions. They are used by
rtla mostly to parse config, display data and some trace operations that
are not part of libtracefs (because they are only useful it for this
case).
