Steinar H. Gunderson 0488568178 perf annotate: LLVM-based disassembler
Support using LLVM as a disassembler method, allowing helperless
annotation in non-distro builds. (It is also much faster than
using libbfd or bfd objdump on binaries with a lot of debug
information.)

This is nearly identical to the output of llvm-objdump; there are
some very rare whitespace differences, some minor changes to demangling
(since we use perf's regular demangling and not LLVM's own) and
the occasional case where llvm-objdump makes a different choice
when multiple symbols share the same address.

It should work across all of LLVM's supported architectures, although
I've only tested 64-bit x86, and finding the right triple from perf's
idea of machine architecture can sometimes be a bit tricky. Ideally, we
should have some way of finding the triplet just from the file itself.

Committer notes:

Address this on 32-bit systems by using PRIu64 from inttypes.h
