perf bench: Add futex-hash microbenchmark



Introduce futexes to perf-bench and add a program that stresses and
measures the kernel's implementation of the hash table.

This is a multi-threaded program that simply measures the amount of
failed futex wait calls - we only want to deal with the hashing
overhead, so a negative return of futex_wait_setup() is enough to do the
trick.

An example run:

  $ perf bench futex hash -t 32
  Run summary [PID 10989]: 32 threads, each operating on 1024 [private] futexes for 10 secs.

  [thread  0] futexes: 0x19d9b10 ... 0x19dab0c [ 418713 ops/sec ]
  [thread  1] futexes: 0x19daca0 ... 0x19dbc9c [ 469913 ops/sec ]
  [thread  2] futexes: 0x19dbe30 ... 0x19dce2c [ 479744 ops/sec ]
  ...
  [thread 31] futexes: 0x19fbb80 ... 0x19fcb7c [ 464179 ops/sec ]

  Averaged 454310 operations/sec (+- 0.84%), total secs = 10
