It better propagate errors, also if we do a simple:
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]# perf record -R -a -f sleep 3s ;
perf trace [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.182 MB perf.data (~7972 samples) ]
Fatal: not an trace data file
[root@doppio linux-2.6-tip]#
That is what is expected, right? I.e. as we didn't specify any
tracepoint event via -e, it should gracefully bail out and not
SEGFAULT.

This drops the trace.info file and move its contents into the
common perf.data file.
This is done by creating a new trace_info section into this file. A
user of perf headers needs to call perf_header__set_trace_info() to
save the trace meta informations into the perf.data file.
A file created by perf after his patch is unsupported by previous
version because the size of the headers have increased.
That said, it's two new fields that have been added in the end of
the headers, and those could be ignored by previous versions if
they just handled the dynamic header size and then ignore the
unknow part. The offsets guarantee the compatibility. We'll do a
-stable fix for that.
But current previous versions handle the header size using its
static size, not dynamic, then it's not backward compatible with
trace records.

We did not account for the enclosing \0. Depending on what malloc()
gave us this resulted in corrupted version string printouts.

Add util/trace-event-read.c which handles trace events
informations reading.
This file is a rename of the trace-read.c file from the
trace-cmd tools, written by Steven Rostedt and Josh Triplett,
originated from the git tree:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/trace-cmd.git
This is its perf tools integration.
