tools: perf: Expose sample ID / stream ID to python scripts
...
perf script exposes the evsel_name to python scripts as part of the data
passed to the sample or tracepoint handler function, and it passes the id and
stream_id to the throttled/unthrottled handler functions. This makes matching
throttle events and samples difficult.
To make this possible, this change exposes the sample id and stream_id values
to the script.

perf tools docs: Use canonical ftrace path
...
The canonical location for the tracefs filesystem is at /sys/kernel/tracing.
But, from Documentation/trace/ftrace.rst:
Before 4.1, all ftrace tracing control files were within the debugfs
file system, which is typically located at /sys/kernel/debug/tracing.
For backward compatibility, when mounting the debugfs file system,
the tracefs file system will be automatically mounted at:
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing
A few spots in the perf docs still refer to this older debugfs path, so
let's update them to avoid confusion.

perf script python: Fix unintended underline
...
The text ranging from "subsystem__event_name" to "raw_syscalls__sys_enter()"
is interpreted by asciidoc as a pair of unconstrained text formatting markers.
The result is that the manual page displayed this text as underlined,
and the HTML pages displayed this text as italicized. Escape the first
double-underscore to prevent this.

The tracepoints used by the workqueue-stats script no longer exist so
trying to run the script results in:
# perf script record workqueue-stats
invalid or unsupported event: 'workqueue:workqueue_creation'
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events
So remove the script until it can be reworked using the new workqueue
tracepoints.

Neil Brown pointed out that lock_depth somehow escaped the BKL
removal work. Let's get rid of it now.
Note that the perf scripting utilities still have a bunch of
code for dealing with common_lock_depth in tracepoints; I have
left that in place in case anybody wants to use that code with
older kernels.
