<title>perf tests: Fix exclude_guest|exclude_host checking for attr tests</title>

We have a one of the event open fallback case in __perf_evsel__open
where we zero exclude_guest|exclude_host fields.

This means there's no way for attr tests to find out what's the right
value for those fields, so we need to check for both 0 and 1. Luckily we
still have other event parsing tests for those fields.

The sample type for '-d' option is changed, because of the memory
profiling patches from Stephane. The '-d' now adds PERF_SAMPLE_DATA_SRC
sample_type.

Make attr script to check for 'cpu' when testing event properties. This
will allow us to check the '-C X' option for both record and stat
commands.

This is needed, so far, just in 'perf stat', to scale counters, so don't
unconditionally ask for them in the perf_evsel__config() method.

Instead make perf_evlist__confir_attrs use perf_evsel__set_sample_id()
when having more than one event, that way only if we have multiple
events we'll ask to have the event ids returned when we read its file
descriptors.

Currently the record command sets all events initially as disabled.

There's non conditional perf_evlist__enable call, that enables all
events before we exec tracee program. That actually screws whole
enable_on_exec logic, because the event is enabled before the traced
program got executed.

What we actually want is:

1) For any type of traced program:
  - all independent events and group leaders are disabled
  - all group members are enabled

   Group members are ruled by group leaders. They need to
   be enabled, because the group scheduling relies on that.

2) For traced programs executed by perf:
   - all independent events and group leaders have
     enable_on_exec set
   - we don't specifically enable or disable any event during
     the record command

   Independent events and group leaders are initially disabled
   and get enabled by exec. Group members are ruled by group
   leaders as stated in 1).

3) For traced programs attached by perf (pid/tid):
   - we specifically enable or disable all events during
     the record command

   When attaching events to already running traced we
   enable/disable events specifically, as there's no
   initial traced exec call.

Fixing appropriate perf_event_attr test case to cover this change.
