Add strfilter__string to recover rules string from strfilter. This will
be good for debugging.

They convey no information, perhaps I was bitten by some snake at some
point, complete the detox by naming the last of those arguments more
sensibly.

Add strfilter for general purpose string filter.
Every filter rules are descrived by glob matching pattern and '!' prefix
which means Logical NOT.
A strfilter consists of those filter rules connected with '&' and '|'.
A set of rules can be folded by using '(' and ')'.
It also accepts spaces around rules and those operators.
Format:
<rule> ::= <glob-exp> | "!" <rule> | <rule> <op> <rule> | "(" <rule> ")"
<op> ::= "&" | "|"
e.g.:
"(add* | del*) & *timer" filter rules pass strings which start with add
or del and end with timer.
This will be used by perf probe --filter.
Changes in V2:
- Fix to check result of strdup() and strfilter__alloc().
- Encapsulate and simplify interfaces as like regex(3).
