perf record: Add 8-byte aligned event type PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED2
The original PERF_RECORD_COMPRESS is not 8-byte aligned, which can cause asan runtime error: # Build with asan $ make -C tools/perf O=/tmp/perf DEBUG=1 EXTRA_CFLAGS="-O0 -g -fno-omit-frame-pointer -fsanitize=undefined" # Test success with many asan runtime errors: $ /tmp/perf/perf test "Zstd perf.data compression/decompression" -vv 83: Zstd perf.data compression/decompression: ... util/session.c:1959:13: runtime error: member access within misaligned address 0x7f69e3f99653 for type 'union perf_event', which requires 13 byte alignment 0x7f69e3f99653: note: pointer points here d0 3a 50 69 44 00 00 00 00 00 08 00 bb 07 00 00 00 00 00 00 44 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ff 07 00 00 ^ util/session.c:2163:22: runtime error: member access within misaligned address 0x7f69e3f99653 for type 'union perf_event', which requires 8 byte alignment 0x7f69e3f99653: note: pointer points here d0 3a 50 69 44 00 00 00 00 00 08 00 bb 07 00 00 00 00 00 00 44 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ff 07 00 00 ^ ... Since there is no way to align compressed data in zstd compression, this patch add a new event type `PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED2`, which adds a field `data_size` to specify the actual compressed data size. The `header.size` contains the total record size, including the padding at the end to make it 8-byte aligned.
