traced_perf: allow collection and symbolization of kernel frames

If a config asks for kernel frames, we include PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN in
the event config. The kernel unwinds its own frames, and we only need to
symbolize them in the unwinder, using the kallsyms symbolizer that was
added for traced_probes.

The kernel frames are output as part of the normal callstack, and can
be further identified by having a magical "kernel" string for their
mapping name. This is similar to what we do for synthetic error frames.

Tested with aosp/1496216 for the SELinux changes around /proc/kallsyms
access on android.

Perfetto - System profiling, app tracing and trace analysis

Perfetto is a production-grade open-source stack for performance instrumentation and trace analysis. It offers services and libraries and for recording system-level and app-level traces, native + java heap profiling, a library for analyzing traces using SQL and a web-based UI to visualize and explore multi-GB traces.

See https://perfetto.dev/docs or the /docs/ directory for documentation.
