[PATCH v4] perf record: collect user registers set jointly with dwarf stacks

[Alexey Budankov]

When dwarf stacks are collected jointly with user specified register
set using --user-regs option like below the full register context is
still captured on a sample:

  $ perf record -g --call-graph dwarf,1024 --user-regs=IP,SP,BP -- stack_test2.g.O3

   ... thread: stack_test2.g.O:23828
   ...... dso: /root/abudanko/stacks/stack_test2.g.O3

After applying the change suggested in the patch the sample data contain
only user specified register values. IP and SP registers (dwarf_regs)
are collected anyways regardless of the --user-regs option value provided
from the command line:

  -g call-graph dwarf,K                         full_regs
  -g call-graph dwarf,K --user-regs=user_regs	user_regs + dwarf_regs
  --user-regs=user_regs                         user_regs

  $ perf record -g --call-graph dwarf,1024 --user-regs=BP -- ls
  WARNING: specified --user-regs register set doesn't include registers needed by also specified --call-graph=dwarf, auto adding IP, SP registers.

Changes in v4:
- added warning message about dwarf registers unconditionally 
  included into the collected registers set

Changes in v3:
- avoid changes in platform specific header files

Changes in v2:
- implemented dwarf register set to avoid corrupted trace 
  when --user-regs option value omits IP,SP
