    perf script: Fix --per-event-dump for auxtrace synth evsels · 501e5bbe

    When processing PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE_INFO several perf_evsel entries
    will be synthesized and inserted into session->evlist, eventually ending
    in perf_script.tool.sample(), which ends up calling builtin-script.c's
    process_event(), that expects evsel->priv to be a perf_evsel_script
    object with a valid FILE pointer in fp.
    
    So we need to intercept the processing of PERF_RECORD_AUXTRACE_INFO and
    then setup evsel->priv for these newly created perf_evsel instances, do
    it to fix the segfault in process_event() trying to use a NULL for that
    FILE pointer.
