tracing, perf: Implement BPF programs attached to uprobes
By copying BPF related operation to uprobe processing path, this patch allow users attach BPF programs to uprobes like what they are already doing on kprobes. After this patch, users are allowed to use PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF on a uprobe perf event. Which make it possible to profile user space programs and kernel events together using BPF. Because of this patch, CONFIG_BPF_EVENTS should be selected by CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENT to ensure trace_call_bpf() is compiled even if KPROBE_EVENT is not set.
