FEATURE_CHECK_LDFLAGS-disassembler-init-styled is not necessary anymore,
so remove it.

Commit 6e8ccb4f ("tools/bpf: properly account for libbfd variations")
sets the linking flags depending on which flavor of the libbfd feature was
detected.

However, the flavors except libbfd cannot be detected, as they are not in

Complete the list of features to detect by adding libbfd-liberty and
libbfd-liberty-z.

While separate features have been defined to determine which linking flags
are required to use libbfd depending on the distribution (libbfd,
libbfd-liberty and libbfd-liberty-z), the same has not been done for other
features requiring linking to libbfd.

For example, disassembler-four-args requires linking to libbfd too, but it
should use the right linking flags. If not all the required ones are
specified, e.g. -liberty, detection will always fail even if the feature is
available.

Instead of creating new features, similarly to libbfd, simply retry
detection with the different set of flags until detection succeeds (or
fails, if the libraries are missing). In this way, feature detection is
transparent for the users of this building mechanism (e.g. perf), and those
users don't have for example to set an appropriate value for the
FEATURE_CHECK_LDFLAGS-disassembler-four-args variable.

The number of retries and features for which the retry mechanism is
implemented is low enough to make the increase in the complexity of
Makefile negligible.

Tested with perf and bpftool on Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS, Fedora 36 and openSUSE
Tumbleweed.

CSV output is tricky to format and column layout changes are susceptible
to breaking parsers. New JSON-formatted output has variable names to
identify fields that are consistent and informative, making the output
parseable.

CSV output example:

  1.20,msec,task-clock:u,1204272,100.00,0.697,CPUs utilized
  0,,context-switches:u,1204272,100.00,0.000,/sec
  0,,cpu-migrations:u,1204272,100.00,0.000,/sec
  70,,page-faults:u,1204272,100.00,58.126,K/sec

JSON output example:

  {"counter-value" : "3805.723968", "unit" : "msec", "event" :
  "cpu-clock", "event-runtime" : 3805731510100.00, "pcnt-running"
  : 100.00, "metric-value" : 4.007571, "metric-unit" : "CPUs utilized"}
  {"counter-value" : "6166.000000", "unit" : "", "event" :

  : 100.00, "metric-value" : 54.654516, "metric-unit" : "/sec"}

Also added documentation for JSON option.

There is some tidy up of CSV code including a potential memory over run
in the os.nfields set up. To facilitate this an AGGR_MAX value is added.

	The differences between those two are
* pipe_get_pages() gets a non-NULL struct page ** value pointing to
preallocated array + array size.
* pipe_get_pages_alloc() gets an address of struct page ** variable that
contains NULL, allocates the array and (on success) stores its address in
that variable.

	Not hard to combine - always pass struct page ***, have
the previous pipe_get_pages_alloc() caller pass ~0U as cap for
array size.

zero maxpages is bogus, but best treated as "just return 0";
NULL pages, OTOH, should be treated as a hard bug.

get rid of now completely useless checks in xarray_get_pages{,_alloc}().

All their callers are next to each other; all of them
want the total amount of pages and, possibly, the
offset in the partial final buffer.

Combine into a new helper (pipe_npages()), fix the
bogosity in pipe_space_for_user(), while we are at it.

We often need to find whether the last buffer is anon or not, and
currently it's rather clumsy:
	check if ->iov_offset is non-zero (i.e. that pipe is not empty)
	if so, get the corresponding pipe_buffer and check its ->ops
	if it's &default_pipe_buf_ops, we have an anon buffer.

Let's replace the use of ->iov_offset (which is nowhere near similar to
its role for other flavours) with signed field (->last_offset), with
the following rules:
	empty, no buffers occupied:		0
	anon, with bytes up to N-1 filled:	N
	zero-copy, with bytes up to N-1 filled:	-N

That way abs(i->last_offset) is equal to what used to be in i->iov_offset
and empty vs. anon vs. zero-copy can be distinguished by the sign of
i->last_offset.

	Checks for "should we extend the last buffer or should we start
a new one?" become easier to follow that way.

	Note that most of the operations can only be done in a sane
state - i.e. when the pipe has nothing past the current position of
iterator.  About the only thing that could be done outside of that
state is iov_iter_advance(), which transitions to the sane state by
truncating the pipe.  There are only two cases where we leave the
sane state:
	1) iov_iter_get_pages()/iov_iter_get_pages_alloc().  Will be
dealt with later, when we make get_pages advancing - the callers are
actually happier that way.
	2) iov_iter copied, then something is put into the copy.  Since
they share the underlying pipe, the original gets behind.  When we
decide that we are done with the copy (original is not usable until then)
we advance the original.  direct_io used to be done that way; nowadays
it operates on the original and we do iov_iter_revert() to discard
the excessive data.  At the moment there's nothing in the kernel that
could do that to ITER_PIPE iterators, so this reason for insane state
is theoretical right now.

Fold pipe_truncate() into it, clean up.  We can release buffers
in the same loop where we walk backwards to the iterator beginning
looking for the place where the new position will be.

instead of setting ->iov_offset for new position and calling
pipe_truncate() to adjust ->len of the last buffer and discard
everything after it, adjust ->len at the same time we set ->iov_offset
and use pipe_discard_from() to deal with buffers past that.

it's only used to get to the partial buffer we can add to,
and that's always the last one, i.e. pipe->head - 1.

	Expand the only remaining call of push_pipe() (in
__pipe_get_pages()), combine it with the page-collecting loop there.

Note that the only reason it's not a loop doing append_pipe() is
that append_pipe() is advancing, while iov_iter_get_pages() is not.
As soon as it switches to saner semantics, this thing will switch
to using append_pipe().

New helper: append_pipe().  Extends the last buffer if possible,
allocates a new one otherwise.  Returns page and offset in it
on success, NULL on failure.  iov_iter is advanced past the
data we've got.

Use that instead of push_pipe() in copy-to-pipe primitives;
they get simpler that way.  Handling of short copy (in "mc" one)
is done simply by iov_iter_revert() - iov_iter is in consistent
state after that one, so we can use that.

There are only two kinds of pipe_buffer in the area used by ITER_PIPE.

1) anonymous - copy_to_iter() et.al. end up creating those and copying
data there.  They have zero ->offset, and their ->ops points to
default_pipe_page_ops.

2) zero-copy ones - those come from copy_page_to_iter(), and page
comes from caller.  ->offset is also caller-supplied - it might be
non-zero.  ->ops points to page_cache_pipe_buf_ops.

Move creation and insertion of those into helpers - push_anon(pipe, size)
and push_page(pipe, page, offset, size) resp., separating them from
the "could we avoid creating a new buffer by merging with the current
head?" logics.
