pmc: Rework PROCEXEC event to support PIEs

Currently the PROCEXEC event only reports a single address, entryaddr,
which is the entry point of the interpreter in the typical dynamic case,
and used solely to calculate the base address of the interpreter. For
PDEs this is fine, since the base address is known from the program
headers, but for PIEs the base address varies at run time based on where
the kernel chooses to load it, and so pmcstat has no way of knowing the
real address ranges for the executable. This was less of an issue in the
past since PIEs were rare, but now they're on by default on 64-bit
architectures it's more of a problem.

To solve this, pass through what was picked for et_dyn_addr by the
kernel, and use that as the offset for the executable's start address
just as is done for everything in the kernel. Since we're changing this
interface, sanitise the way we determine the interpreter's base address
by passing it through directly rather than indirectly via the entry
point and having to subtract off whatever the ELF header's e_entry is
(and anything that wants the entry point in future can still add that
back on as needed; this merely changes the interface to directly provide
the underlying variables involved).

This will be followed up by a bump to the pmc major version.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification

- Add support for PMCs in Intel CPUs of Family 6, model 0xE (Core Solo
and Core Duo), models 0xF (Core2), model 0x17 (Core2Extreme) and
model 0x1C (Atom).

In these CPUs, the actual numbers, kinds and widths of PMCs present
need to queried at run time. Support for specific "architectural"
events also needs to be queried at run time.

Model 0xE CPUs support programmable PMCs, subsequent CPUs
additionally support "fixed-function" counters.

- Use event names that are close to vendor documentation, taking in
account that:
- events with identical semantics on two or more CPUs in this family
can have differing names in vendor documentation,
- identical vendor event names may map to differing events across
CPUs,
- each type of CPU supports a different subset of measurable
events.

Fixed-function and programmable counters both use the same vendor
names for events. The use of a class name prefix ("iaf-" or
"iap-" respectively) permits these to be distinguished.

- In libpmc, refactor pmc_name_of_event() into a public interface
and an internal helper function, for use by log handling code.

- Minor code tweaks: staticize a global, freshen a few comments.

MFP4: Support for profiling dynamically loaded objects.

Kernel changes:

Inform hwpmc of executable objects brought into the system by
kldload() and mmap(), and of their removal by kldunload() and
munmap(). A helper function linker_hwpmc_list_objects() has been
added to "sys/kern/kern_linker.c" and is used by hwpmc to retrieve
the list of currently loaded kernel modules.

The unused `MAPPINGCHANGE' event has been deprecated in favour
of separate `MAP_IN' and `MAP_OUT' events; this change reduces
space wastage in the log.

Bump the hwpmc's ABI version to "2.0.00". Teach hwpmc(4) to
handle the map change callbacks.

Change the default per-cpu sample buffer size to hold
32 samples (up from 16).

Increment __FreeBSD_version.

libpmc(3) changes:

Update libpmc(3) to deal with the new events in the log file; bring
the pmclog(3) manual page in sync with the code.

pmcstat(8) changes:

Introduce new options to pmcstat(8): "-r" (root fs path), "-M"
(mapfile name), "-q"/"-v" (verbosity control). Option "-k" now
takes a kernel directory as its argument but will also work with
the older invocation syntax.

Rework string handling in pmcstat(8) to use an opaque type for
interned strings. Clean up ELF parsing code and add support for
tracking dynamic object mappings reported by a v2.0.00 hwpmc(4).

Report statistics at the end of a log conversion run depending
on the requested verbosity level.
