[PATCH v2 2/2] perf test: Add inject ASLR test

[Ian Rogers]

Add a new shell test `inject_aslr.sh` to verify the `perf inject --aslr`
feature. The test covers:
- Basic address remapping for user space samples.
- Pipe mode coverage for `perf record` piped into `perf inject --aslr`.
- Callchain address remapping.
- Consistency of `perf report` output before and after injection.
- Pipe mode report consistency.
- Dropping of samples that leak ASLR info (physical addresses).
- Kernel address remapping (skipping gracefully if permissions restrict
  recording the kernel map).
- Kernel report consistency with address normalization.
