perf python scripting: Improve the failed-syscalls-by-pid script
. Print message at script start telling how to get te summary
. Print the syscall name using the audit-lib-python package, if
  installed
. Print the errno string
. Accept both pid (if numeric) or COMM name
Now it looks like this:
[root@emilia ~]# perf trace failed-syscalls-by-pid
Press control+C to stop and show the summary
^C
syscall errors:
comm [pid]                           count
