perf trace: Support --events foo:bar --no-syscalls
I.e. support tracing just tracepoints, without strace like raw_syscalls:*. [acme@ssdandy linux]$ trace --no-sys --ev sched:*exec,sched:*switch,sched:*exit usleep 1 0.048 ( ): sched:sched_process_exec:filename=/usr/bin/usleep pid=27298 old_pid=27298) 0.369 ( ): sched:sched_switch:usleep:27298 [120] S ==> swapper/5:0 [120]) 0.452 ( ): sched:sched_process_exit:comm=usleep pid=27298 prio=120) [acme@ssdandy linux]$ TODO: remove that (...) thing when --no-syscalls is specified.
