perf parse-regs: Introduce functions perf_arch_reg_{ip|sp}()
The current code uses macros PERF_REG_IP and PERF_REG_SP for parsing registers and we build perf with these macros statically, which means it only can correctly analyze CPU registers for the native architecture and fails to support cross analysis (e.g. we build perf on x86 and cannot analyze Arm64's registers). We need to generalize util/perf_regs.c for support multi architectures, as a first step, this commit introduces new functions perf_arch_reg_ip() and perf_arch_reg_sp(), these two functions dynamically return IP and SP register index respectively according to the parameter "arch". Every architecture has its own functions (like __perf_reg_ip_arm64 and __perf_reg_sp_arm64), these architecture specific functions are defined in each arch source file under folder util/perf-regs-arch; at the end all of them are built into the tool for cross analysis. Committer notes: Make DWARF_MINIMAL_REGS() an inline function, so that we can use the __maybe_unused attribute for the 'arch' parameter, as this will avoid a build failure when that variable is unused in the callers. That happens when building on unsupported architectures, the ones without HAVE_PERF_REGS_SUPPORT defined.
