Leo Yan 3220fb8d5e perf parse: Copy string to perf_evsel_config_term 
perf with CoreSight fails to record trace data with command:

  perf record -e cs_etm/@tmc_etr0/u --per-thread ls
  failed to set sink "" on event cs_etm/@tmc_etr0/u with 21 (Is a
  directory)/perf/

This failure is root caused with the commit 1dc925568f ("perf
parse: Add a deep delete for parse event terms").

The log shows, cs_etm fails to parse the sink attribution; cs_etm event
relies on the event configuration to pass sink name, but the event
specific configuration data cannot be passed properly with flow:

  get_config_terms()
    ADD_CONFIG_TERM(DRV_CFG, term->val.str);
      __t->val.str = term->val.str;
        `> __t->val.str is assigned to term->val.str;

  parse_events_terms__purge()
    parse_events_term__delete()
      zfree(&term->val.str);
        `> term->val.str is freed and assigned to NULL pointer;

  cs_etm_set_sink_attr()
    sink = __t->val.str;
      `> sink string has been freed.

To fix this issue, in the function get_config_terms(), this patch
changes to use strdup() for allocation a new duplicate string rather
than directly assignment string pointer.

This patch addes a new field 'free_str' in the data structure
perf_evsel_config_term; 'free_str' is set to true when the union is used
as a string pointer; thus it can tell perf_evsel__free_config_terms() to
free the string.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
