Fix nd_syscalls.stp for architectures using SYSCALL_WRAPPERS.
Add kprobe.function("SyS_*") probe points to nd_syscall.* probe aliases.
Analogue of commit 132c337c with two exceptions:
- remove sufficiency of these new probe points (use '?' instead of '!'),
because translator always considers them resolved,
- make non-SyS probe points optional in probe aliases affected by
syscall wrappers, because otherwise they will fail on such
architectures.

Fix another kernel/kprobe.function conflict
Both kernel.function and kprobe.function were defining a global array
stap_unreg_kprobes to use in bulk kprobes unregistration. The compiler
allowed the duplicate definition as long as they were the same size, as
it was when exercised in buildok/thirtyone.
kprobe.function now uses a separate stap_unreg_kprobes2, and the
testcase is modified to produce an imbalanced number of probes.

Use embedded-C for empty functions

PR10177: init/kill time in sleepy context only
Previously, _stp_init_time and _stp_kill_time were being called from
begin/end/error probes, which will run with preemption disabled. The
BUG reported on RT kernels showed that cpufreq_unregister_notifier can
end up sleeping, which violates our preemption block.
This patch moves the init/kill into systemtap_module_init/exit, where it
is safe to sleep. The code maintains a new predicate with the define
STAP_NEED_GETTIMEOFDAY, so we don't still incur any timer overhead if
it's not used.

Refactor anonymous lookups in translate_components
The previous code recursed the entirety of translate_components, and
it seemed to be restarting the components list every time, so it would
only work if the anonymous portion was the first component. Even then,
examining the code output by semok/thirtythree revealed that it wasn't
fully translating the locations when multiple anonymous pieces were
involved.
Instead, it now recurses in a separate function, find_struct_member,
which does just enough to find the member die and return. It also
builds a vector of the locations passed through, so translate_components
can output code for the full chain of anonymity.
The generated code for semok/thirtythree's $page->mapping now appears to
match the offsets from my manual inspection of struct page. I also
added a test for $page->first_page->mapping, which works now but would
segfault the old code.
