Because 'perf record' will have to find the build-ids in after
we stop recording, so as to reduce even more the impact in the
workload while we do the measurement.

Using this option 'perf buildid-list' will process all samples,
marking the DSOs that had some hits to list just them.
This in turn will be used by a new porcelain, 'perf archive',
that will be just a shell script to create a tarball from the
'perf buildid-list --with-hits' output and the files cached by
'perf record' in ~/.debug.

As it is already processed by:
perf_session__new
perf_session__open
perf_session__read
This was harmless, because we use dsos__findnew, that would
already find it, but is unnecessary work and removing it makes
builtin-buildid-list.c even shorter.

Fixing this:
[acme@doppio linux-2.6-tip]$ perf diff --hell
Error: unknown option `hell'
usage: perf diff [<options>] [old_file] [new_file]
Segmentation fault
[acme@doppio linux-2.6-tip]$
Also go over the other such arrays to check if they all were OK,
they are, but there were some minor changes to do like making
one static and renaming another to match the command it refers
to.

This simplifies a lot of functions, less stuff to be done by

There is still some more work to do to disentangle map creation
from DSO loading, but this happens only for the kernel, and for
the early adopters of perf diff, where this disentanglement
matters most, we'll be testing different kernels, so no problem
here.
Further clarification: right now we create the kernel maps for
the various modules and discontiguous kernel text maps when
loading the DSO, we should do it as a two step process, first
creating the maps, for multiple mappings with the same DSO
store, then doing the dso load just once, for the first hit on
one of the maps sharing this DSO backing store.

Pass the event_ops to perf_session__process_events instead.
Also move the event_ops definition to session.h, starting to
move things around to their right place, trimming the many
unneeded headers we have.

That does all the initialization boilerplate, opening the file,
reading the header, checking if it is valid, etc.
And that will as well have the threads list, kmap (now) global
variable, etc, so that we can handle two (or more) perf.data files
describing sessions to compare.

With this we can list the buildids in a perf.data file so that
we can pipe them to other, distro specific tools that from the
buildids can figure out separate packages (foo-debuginfo) where
we can find the matching symtabs so that perf report can do its
job.
E.g:
[acme@doppio linux-2.6-tip]$ perf buildid-list | head -5
