perf ftrace: Introduce new 'ftrace' tool



The 'perf ftrace' command is a simple wrapper of kernel's ftrace
functionality.  It only supports single thread tracing currently and
just reads trace_pipe in text and then write it to stdout.

Committer notes:

Testing it:

  # perf ftrace -f function_graph usleep 123456

NAME
----
perf-ftrace - simple wrapper for kernel's ftrace functionality


SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
'perf ftrace' <command>

DESCRIPTION
-----------
The 'perf ftrace' command is a simple wrapper of kernel's ftrace
functionality.  It only supports single thread tracing currently and
just reads trace_pipe in text and then write it to stdout.

The following options apply to perf ftrace.

OPTIONS
-------

-t::
--tracer=::
	Tracer to use: function_graph or function.

-v::
--verbose=::
        Verbosity level.
