[RFC PATCH 1/5] perf/kselftest: convert prefix.pl to Python

[Breno Rodrigues Alves]

Faithful re-implementation of tools/testing/selftests/kselftest/
prefix.pl in Python 3 (stdlib only). Same unbuffered stdin-to-stdout
processing, same "# " prefix behavior.

Verified byte-for-byte identical to the Perl version.
