Increase use of e_machine by replacing callchain_param_setup's arch
argument to be an e_machine typically read from the session.

perf script: Fix script_fetch_insn for more than just x862026-01-27T04:35:22+00:00Ian Rogersirogers@google.com2026-01-26T22:05:48+00:00urn:sha1:7ce6dfc603ed01044ebe58472a584d9995281ca2
The script_fetch_insn code was only supported on natively running x86.
Implement a crude elf_machine_max_instruction_length function and use to
give an instruction length on more than just x86.
Use the ELF machine to determine the length to use to support
cross-architecture development.

perf sample: Make user_regs and intr_regs optional2025-02-13T04:06:11+00:00Ian Rogersirogers@google.com2025-01-13T19:43:45+00:00urn:sha1:dc6d2bc2d893a878e7b58578ff01b4738708deb4
The struct dump_regs contains 512 bytes of cache_regs, meaning the two
values in perf_sample contribute 1088 bytes of its total 1384 bytes
size. Initializing this much memory has a cost reported by Tavian
Barnes <tavianator@tavianator.com> as about 2.5% when running `perf
script --itrace=i0`:

Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> replied that the zero
initialization was necessary and couldn't simply be removed.
This patch aims to strike a middle ground of still zeroing the
perf_sample, but removing 79% of its size by make user_regs and
intr_regs optional pointers to zalloc-ed memory. To support the
allocation accessors are created for user_regs and intr_regs. To
support correct cleanup perf_sample__init and perf_sample__exit
functions are created and added throughout the code base.
