We need a simple method to test Perf with Arm CoreSight drivers, this

CoreSight drivers, and we also can use the test to confirm if the
CoreSight has been enabled successfully on new platforms.

This patch introduces the shell script test_arm_coresight.sh which is
under the 'pert test' framework.  This script provides three testing
scenarios:

Below is detailed usage for it:

     70: probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping
     71: Check Arm CoreSight trace data recording and synthesized samples
     72: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname
     73: Zstd perf.data compression/decompression
     74: Add vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames
     75: Use vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames

   # perf test 71
     71: Check Arm CoreSight trace data recording and branch samples: Ok
