[RFC PATCH 2/2] tools: Add a tool for merging trace data of a guestand a host

[Yoshihiro YUNOMAE]

This tool merges trace data of a guest and a host in chronological order.
Note that this tool is used only for a guest and a host. (not for multiple
guests)

- How to use
1. Get trace data of the host and guest via ssh, virtio-serial, or virtio-trace

2. Get TSC offset after applied patch "kvm/vmx: Print TSC_OFFSET information
   when TSC offset value is written to VMCS"
$ dmesg | grep kvm
[   57.717180] kvm: ([PID]) write TSC offset [TSC offset], now clock [HOST TSC]

3. Use this tool
$ ./trace-merge.pl <TSC offset> <host data> <guest data>
