Arjan reported this error when entering an unknown command to perf:
$ perf start
fatal: Uh oh. Your system reports no Git commands at all.
The Git code expects there to be perf-* commands - but since Perf
is a 'pure' utility with no dash commands anymore, this old assumption
of Git does not hold anymore. Remove that error check.

Import Git's nice .txt => {man/html/pdf} generation machinery.
Fix various errors in the Documentation/perf*.txt description as well.
Also fix a bug in builtin-help: we'd map 'perf help top' to 'perftop'
if only the 'perf' binary is in the default PATH - confusing the manpage
logic. I dont fully understand why Git did it this way - but i suppose
it's a migration artifact from their migration from standalone git-xyz
commands to 'git xyz' commands. The perf tools were always using the
modern form so it's not an issue there.

perf_counter tools: Add locking to perf top
We need to protect the active_symbols list as two threads change it:
the main thread adding entries to the head and the display thread
decaying entries from any place in the list.
Also related: take a snapshot of syme->count[0] before using it to
calculate the weight and to show the same number used in this calc when
displaying the symbol usage.

Before this change, if a long-running perf stat workload was Ctrl-C-ed,
the utility exited without displaying statistics.
After the change, the Ctrl-C gets propagated into the workload (and
causes its early exit there), but perf stat itself will still continue
to run and will display counter results.
This is useful to run open-ended workloads, let them run for
a while, then Ctrl-C them to get the stats.

Bail out early if a record has zero size - we have no chance to make
reliable progress in that case. Print out the offset where this happens,
and print the number of bytes we missed out on.

The documentation about the perf-top build was outdated after
perfstat has been implemented. This updates it.

Add Documentation/perf-stat.txt and Documentation/perf-top.txt.
The template that was used for it: Documentation/git-add.txt from Git.
Fix up small bugs to make these help texts show up both in the 'perf'
common-command summary output screen, and on the individual help screens.

First very raw version at having a central 'perf' command and
a list of subcommands:
perf top
perf stat
perf record
perf report
...
This is done by picking up Git's collection of utility functions,
and hacking them to build fine in this new environment.

We'd like to have a similar user-space structure as Git has, for the
perfcounter tools - so copy in Git's toplevel makefile as-is.
We'll strip it down in subsequent commits to make it fit the
perfcounters code.
The Git version used: 66996ec: Sync with 1.6.2.4
