perf: Add AUX area to ring buffer for raw data streams

This patch introduces "AUX space" in the perf mmap buffer, intended for
exporting high bandwidth data streams to userspace, such as instruction
flow traces.

AUX space is a ring buffer, defined by aux_{offset,size} fields in the
user_page structure, and read/write pointers aux_{head,tail}, which abide
by the same rules as data_* counterparts of the main perf buffer.

In order to allocate/mmap AUX, userspace needs to set up aux_offset to
such an offset that will be greater than data_offset+data_size and
aux_size to be the desired buffer size. Both need to be page aligned.
Then, same aux_offset and aux_size should be passed to mmap() call and
if everything adds up, you should have an AUX buffer as a result.

Pages that are mapped into this buffer also come out of user's mlock
rlimit plus perf_event_mlock_kb allowance.
