This adds XDP support to BCC as currently supported in net-next.
Concretely, it adds two functions to bcc, namely:
`attach_xdp` and `remove_xdp`
which allows to attach an XDP program to a device (given via its name, e.g., en0) (in the future this might change to a specific queue on a device once the kernel offers this interface)
and `remove_xdp` removes a XDP program from a device. Please note that there can currently be only one program attached to the device and attaching another program replaces the previous.
One example is available to test XDP, in networking/xdp which drops all packets an counts for which protocol a packet was dropped (this is taken from the kernel xdp1 example). Please note that you cannot use the network headers defined in <bcc/proto.h> as they cause llvm/clang to generate instructions not available on XDP layer. On XDP layer you do not have an skb yet, so you are operating on the bare packet data.
XDP support is currently limited to only some network adapters, there is the `mlx4` and there is also a patch available for the `e1000` driver.

Remove asserts on str probe names
`open_kprobes` is a dict of open kprobes. Its keys are strings for normal
probes and a tuple for perf buffers. Normal probes need unregistering on script
exit; perf buffers do not. `cleanup` currently looks for string keys
(specifically type `str`) when working out what to unregister, which is a bit
brittle -- in Python2 strings can be both native `str` and `unicode`, depending
what exactly was passed to `attach-*/detach_*` and whether `from __future__
import unicode_literals` is used (e.g. #623).
This diff makes the API more relaxed by casting the probe name to `str` to
match the expectations of `cleanup`. This works in py2 (with and without
unicode_literals) and py3.

Store kprobes with string keys, fix num_open_kprobes
Prior to this diff we used inconsistent types for keys in `open_kprobes`. The
results from the regex match (`attach_kprobe(event_re=..)`) and the automatic
`kprobe__` features were passed through `str.decode()`, yielding unicode keys,
but specific matches (i.e. from `attach_kprobe(event=..)`) were stored with
string keys passed down from the caller. Only probes under string keys were
released in `cleanup_kprobes`, leaving attached probes on program exit.
This diff makes all the keys regular strings. I erred on the side of using
regular strings over `str.decode()`ing them because a) this data isn't passed
outside of Python, b) it's more Python 3 compatible (there is no `.decode()` on
a regular string object in Python 3 so such a change would ultimately need
removing again).
I also cleaned up a few other things:
* removed the call to `awk` for getting probable functions
* removed the `isinstance` checks when cleaning uprobes/tracepoints -- we
should only have string keys in these dicts
* made `num_open_kprobes` skip the perf_events buffers. People likely use this
to check that the right number of probes have been placed so counting
perf_events buffers doesn't make sense here

Add support for reading symbols from /tmp/perf-pid.map
This adds basic support for /tmp/perf-pid.map. To cope with processes in
containers, it supports:
* mapping from BCC's PID namespace to the target process's PID namespace
using /proc/pid/status
* resolving a target process's root filesystem using /proc/pid/root

Check for NULL result from bpf_attach_kprobe

Check for NULL result from bpf_attach_kprobe
The check for NULL in the return value from C functions was comparing to
None incorrectly, causing an error check to pass improperly. Simply
check the truthiness of the return instead seems to be more resilient.
Add a test as well.

libbpf.c: Prepend BPF syscall error to log_bug when debug is enabled.

python: With DEBUG_BPF, print BPF error even if log_buf is not empty.
When BPF syscall fails and DEBUG_FLAG has been provided to a Python
caller script, the BPF error string would be printed only if log_buf had
not been filled by the kernel. This commit removes this requirement,
printing the error string even if log_buf is not empty.

python: Print BPF syscall error if DEBUG_BPF is on but log_buf is empty.
Commit
759029fea8066b41b54be5447137db95cb1313c4 provided an option to
store the output from BPF syscall into a buffer (and not to print it
systematically to standard output) on program load in libbpf.c.
But doing so, it only stores the content of attr.log_buf, while the
error string--resulting from a failed BPF syscall--is no more displayed
when the DEBUG_BPF flag is used in the Python script responsible for
converting and injecting the code.
This commit proposes a fix for this bug by printing the error message
(associated to the return value from the syscall) from the Python
caller, when all the following conditions are met:
- the syscall fails,
- the DEBUG_BPF flag has been provided, and
- log_buf is empty (has not been filled by kernel).
Note: when DEBUG_BPF is not provided, the error string is printed in the
C wrapper in libbpf.c (bpf_prog_load) anyway.
