perf evsel: Rename set_filter to apply_filter
We need to be able to go on constructing a complex filter in multiple
stages, since we can only set one filter per event.
For instance, we need to be able, in 'perf trace' to filter by the
'common_pid' field all the time, if only for the tracer itself, to
avoid a feedback loop, and, in addition, we may want to filter the
raw_syscalls:sys_{enter,exit} events by its 'id' filter, when using
'perf trace -e open,close' or 'perf trace -e !open,close', i.e. when
we are interested in just a subset of syscalls or when we are not
interested in it.
So we will have:
perf_evsel__set_filter(evsel, char *filter)
Replaces whatever is in evsel->filter.
perf_evsel__append_filter(evsel, const char *op, char *filter)
Appends, using op ("&&" or "||") with what is in evsel->filter.
perf_evsel__apply_filter(evsel, filter):
That actually applies a filter, be it the one being
constructed in evsel->filter, or any other, for tools
with more specific ways to build the filter, issuing
the appropriate ioctl for all the evsel fds.
The same changes will be made to the evlist__{set,apply} variants to
keep everything consistent.
