Ian Rogers 2273697781 perf test script: Add perl script testing support
Basic coverage of perl script support from `perf script`. This is
disabled by default and so the test will most normally skip.

Committer testing:

  $ perf test 'perf script perl'
  106: perf script perl tests                                          : Skip
  $ perf test -vv 'perf script perl'
  106: perf script perl tests:
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 578323
  perf script perl test [Skipped: no libperl support]
  ---- end(-2) ----
  106: perf script perl tests                                          : Skip
  $ perf check feature libperl
                 libperl: [ OFF ]  # HAVE_LIBPERL_SUPPORT ( tip: Deprecated, use LIBPERL=1 and install perl-ExtUtils-Embed/libperl-dev to build with it )
  $

Install perl-ExtUtils-Embed, build with LIBPERL=1, rebuild:

  $ perf check feature libperl
                 libperl: [ on  ]  # HAVE_LIBPERL_SUPPORT
  $ perf test 'perf script perl'
  106: perf script perl tests                                          : Ok
  $ perf test -vv 'perf script perl'
  106: perf script perl tests:
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 588206
  Testing event: sched:sched_switch
  perf script perl test [Skipped: failed to record sched:sched_switch]
  Testing event: task-clock
