This patch allows creating only one BPF program for different
'probe_trace_event'(tev) entries generated by one
'perf_probe_event'(pev) if their prologues are identical.

This is done by comparing the argument list of different tev instances,
and the maps type of prologue and tev using a mapping array. This patch
utilizes qsort to sort the tevs. After sorting, tevs with identical
argument lists will be grouped together.

Test result:

Sample BPF program:

  #define SEC(NAME) __attribute__((section(NAME), used))
  SEC("inlines=no;"
      "func=SyS_dup? oldfd")
  int func(void *ctx)
  {
      return 1;
  }

It would probe at SyS_dup2 and SyS_dup3, obtaining oldfd as its
argument.

The following cmdline shows a BPF program being loaded into the kernel
by perf:

 # perf record -e ./test_bpf_arg.c sleep 4 & sleep 1 && ls /proc/$!/fd/ -l | grep bpf-prog

Before this patch:

  # perf record -e ./test_bpf_arg.c sleep 4 & sleep 1 && ls /proc/$!/fd/ -l | grep bpf-prog
  [1] 24858
  lrwx------ 1 root root 64 Nov 14 04:09 3 -> anon_inode:bpf-prog
  lrwx------ 1 root root 64 Nov 14 04:09 4 -> anon_inode:bpf-prog
  ...

After this patch:

  # perf record -e ./test_bpf_arg.c sleep 4 & sleep 1 && ls /proc/$!/fd/ -l | grep bpf-prog
  [1] 25699
  lrwx------ 1 root root 64 Nov 14 04:10 3 -> anon_inode:bpf-prog
  ...
