perf augmented_raw_syscalls: Switch to using BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY
Trying to control what arguments to copy, which ones were strings, etc
all from userspace via maps went nowhere, lots of difficulties to get
the verifier satisfied, so use what the fine BPF guys designed for such
a syscall handling mechanism: bpf_tail_call + BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY.
The series leading to this should have explained it thoroughly, but the
end result, explained via gdb should help understand this:

Now its a matter of automagically assigning the BPF programs copying
syscall arg pointers to functions that are "open"-like (i.e. that need
only the first syscall arg copied as a string), or "openat"-like (2nd
arg, etc).
End result in tool output:
