perf trace: Use the augmented_raw_syscall BPF skel only for tracing syscalls

It is possible to use 'perf trace' with tracepoints and in that case we
can't initialize/use the augmented_raw_syscalls BPF skel.

For instance, this usecase:

  # perf trace -e sched:*exec --max-events=5
         ? (         ): NetworkManager/1183  ... [continued]: poll())                                             = 1
     0.043 ( 0.007 ms): NetworkManager/1183 epoll_wait(epfd: 17<anon_inode:[eventpoll]>, events: 0x55555f90e920, maxevents: 6) = 0
     0.060 ( 0.007 ms): NetworkManager/1183 write(fd: 3<anon_inode:[eventfd]>, buf: 0x7ffc5a27cd30, count: 8)     = 8
     0.073 ( 0.005 ms): NetworkManager/1183 epoll_wait(epfd: 24<anon_inode:[eventpoll]>, events: 0x7ffc5a27cd20, maxevents: 2) = 1
     0.082 ( 0.010 ms): NetworkManager/1183 recvmmsg(fd: 26<socket:[30298]>, mmsg: 0x7ffc5a27caa0, vlen: 8)       = 1
  #

Where we want to trace just some sched tracepoints ending in 'exec' ends
up tracing all syscalls.

Fix it by checking existing trace->trace_syscalls boolean to see if we
need the augmenter.

A followup patch will move those sections of code used only with the
augmenter to separate functions, to get it cleaner and remove the goto,
done just for reviewing purposes.

With this patch in place the previous behaviour is restored: no syscalls
when we have other events and no syscall names:

  [root@quaco ~]# perf probe do_filp_open "filename=pathname->name:string"
  Added new event:
    probe:do_filp_open   (on do_filp_open with filename=pathname->name:string)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	  perf record -e probe:do_filp_open -aR sleep 1

  [root@quaco ~]# perf trace --max-events=10 -e probe:do_filp_open sleep 1
     0.000 sleep/455122 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/etc/ld.so.cache")
     0.056 sleep/455122 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/lib64/libc.so.6")
     0.481 sleep/455122 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/usr/lib/locale/locale-archive")
     0.501 sleep/455122 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/usr/share/locale/locale.alias")
     0.572 sleep/455122 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/usr/lib/locale/en_US.UTF-8/LC_IDENTIFICATION")
     0.581 sleep/455122 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/usr/lib/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_IDENTIFICATION")
     0.616 sleep/455122 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/usr/lib64/gconv/gconv-modules.cache")
     0.656 sleep/455122 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/usr/lib/locale/en_US.UTF-8/LC_MEASUREMENT")
     0.664 sleep/455122 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/usr/lib/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_MEASUREMENT")

  [root@quaco ~]#

As well as mixing syscalls with tracepoints, getting the syscall
tracepoints used augmented using the BPF skel:

  [root@quaco ~]# perf trace --max-events=10 -e open*,probe:do_filp_open sleep 1
     0.000 (         ): sleep/455124 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: "/etc/ld.so.cache", flags: RDONLY|CLOEXEC) ...
     0.005 (         ): sleep/455124 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/etc/ld.so.cache")
     0.000 ( 0.011 ms): sleep/455124  ... [continued]: openat())                                           = 3
     0.031 (         ): sleep/455124 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: "/lib64/libc.so.6", flags: RDONLY|CLOEXEC) ...
     0.033 (         ): sleep/455124 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/lib64/libc.so.6")
     0.031 ( 0.006 ms): sleep/455124  ... [continued]: openat())                                           = 3
     0.258 (         ): sleep/455124 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: "/usr/lib/locale/locale-archive", flags: RDONLY|CLOEXEC) ...
     0.261 (         ): sleep/455124 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/usr/lib/locale/locale-archive")
     0.258 ( 0.006 ms): sleep/455124  ... [continued]: openat())                                           = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
     0.272 (         ): sleep/455124 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: "/usr/share/locale/locale.alias", flags: RDONLY|CLOEXEC) ...
     0.273  (        ): sleep/455124 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/usr/share/locale/locale.alias")

A final note: the probe:do_filp_open uses a kprobe (probably optimized
as its in the start of a function) that uses the kprobe_tracer mechanism
in the kernel to collect the pathname->name string and stash it into the
tracepoint created by 'perf probe' for that:

  [root@quaco ~]# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
  p:probe/do_filp_open _text+4621920 filename=+0(+0(%si)):string
  [root@quaco ~]#

While the syscalls:sys_enter_openat tracepoint gets its string from a
BPF program attached to raw_syscalls:sys_enter that tail calls into
another BPF program that knows the types for the openat syscall args and
thus can bpf_probe_read it right after the normal
sys_enter/sys_enter_openat tracepoint payload that comes prefixed with
whatever perf_event_open asked for (CPU, timestamp, etc):

  [root@quaco ~]# bpftool prog | grep -E "sys_enter |sys_enter_opena" -A3
