To avoid formatting failures for example in CSV output due to debug
messages, add --output option to put the result in a file.
Unfortunately the short -o option was taken by the --owner already.

  $ sudo ./perf lock con -ab --output lock-out.txt -v sleep 1

<title>perf lock contention: Add -x option for CSV style output</title>

Sometimes we want to process the output by external programs.  Let's add
the -x option to specify the field separator like perf stat.

  $ sudo ./perf lock con -ab -x, sleep 1
  # output: contended, total wait, max wait, avg wait, type, caller

  4, 86740, 23415, 21685, rwlock:R, ep_poll_callback+0x2d
  1, 84281, 84281, 84281, mutex, iwl_mvm_async_handlers_wk+0x135

  1, 24619, 24619, 24619, spinlock, rcu_core+0xd4

The first line is a comment that shows the output format.  Each line is
separated by the given string ("," in this case).  The time is printed
in nsec without the unit so that it can be parsed easily.

The characters can be used in the output like (":", "+" and ".") are not
allowed for the -x option.

  $ ./perf lock con -x:
  Cannot use the separator that is already used

   Usage: perf lock contention [&lt;options&gt;]

      -x, --field-separator &lt;separator&gt;
                            print result in CSV format with custom separator

The stacktraces are printed in the same line separated by ":".  The
header is updated to show the stacktrace.  Also the debug output is
added at the end as a comment.

-target has been deprecated since Clang 3.4 in 2013. Use the preferred
--target=bpf form instead. This matches how we use --target= in
scripts/Makefile.clang.

This patch adds support for "--per-cache" option for aggregation at a
particular cache level and documents the same.

Following is the output of 'perf stat' with aggregation at L3 for the
event "ls_dmnd_fills_from_sys.ext_cache_remote" on a dual socket 3rd
Generation EPYC Processor (2 x 64C/128T - 16 LLCs) when running
hackbench pinned to 4 LLCs:

  $ sudo perf stat --per-cache=L3 -a -e ls_dmnd_fills_from_sys.ext_cache_remote -- \
    taskset -c 0-15,64-79,128-143,192-207 \
    perf bench sched messaging -p -t -l 100000 -g 8

Add documentation for the newly introduced "--per-cache" option.

When building man pages from a Git checkout, we consistently set the
man page date based on when the input was last changed.  Otherwise, it
defaults to the build time, which is not reproducible.

Allow the date to be set through the KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP variable,
as for timestamps in the kernel itself.

<title>perf doc: Define man page date when using asciidoctor</title>

When building perf documentation with asciidoc, we use "git log" to
find the last commit date of each doc source and pass that to asciidoc
to use as the man page date.

When using asciidoctor, however, the current date is always used
instead.  Defining perf_date like we do for asciidoc also doesn't
work because we're not using DocBook as an intermediate format.
The asciidoctor man page backend looks for the variable "docdate",
so set that instead.

This adds a new 'dsoff' field to print dso offset for resolved symbols,
and the offset is appended to dso name.

Default output:

The BPF hash map will align the map size to a power of 2.  So 10k would
be 16k anyway.  Let's have the actual size to avoid confusions.

Users often want to change the map size, let's add a short option (-M)
for that.
