perf record: Synthesize COMM event for a command line workload (2015-09-22 22:43:12 -0300)

----------------------------------------------------------------
perf/core improvements and fixes:

User visible:

- Fix a segfault in 'perf probe' when removing uprobe events (Masami Hiramatsu)

- Synthesize COMM event for workloads started from the command line in 'perf
record' so that we can have the pid->comm mapping before we get the real
PERF_RECORD_COMM switching from perf to the workload (Namhyung Kim)

- Fix build tools/vm/ due to removal of tools/lib/api/fs/debugfs.h
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

Developer stuff:

- Fix the make tarball targets by including the recently added err.h header in
the perf MANIFEST file (Jiri Olsa)

- Don't assume that the event parser returns a non empty evlist (Wang Nan)

- Add way to disambiguate feature detection state files, needed to use
tools/build feature detection for multiple components in a single O= output
dir, which will be the case with tools/perf/ and tools/lib/bpf/
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Fixup FEATURE_{TESTS,DISPLAY} inversion in tools/lib/bpf/ (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
