perf tools: Add support to parse event group syntax
Adding scanner/parser bits to parse event groups. The grammar for group is: groups: groups ',' group | group group: group_name '{' events '}' group_mod group_name: name | empty group_mod: ':' group_mods | empty group_mods: event_mod It's possible to use standard event modifier as a modifier for group. It'll be used as an update to existing event modifiers. It's necessary to use quoting ("'\) when specifying group on command line, since {} characters are interpreted by most of the shells. It is now possible to specify groups in event syntax like: '{cycles,faults}' - anonymous group 'group1{cycles,faults} - group with name 'group1' '{cycles,faults}:k - anonymous group with event modifier 'k' '{cpu-clock,task-clock},{minor-faults,major-faults}' - two anonymous groups The grouping functionality itself is coming shortly.
