Make perf-record command support --vmlinux option if BPF_PROLOGUE is on.

'perf record' needs vmlinux as the source of DWARF info to generate
prologue for BPF programs, so path of vmlinux should be specified.

Short name 'k' has been taken by 'clockid'. This patch skips the short
option name and use '--vmlinux' for vmlinux path.

Documentation is also updated.

Test result:

In a production (or broken) environment:
 (built by
  # rm -rf ~/.debug/
  # mv /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/vmlinux /tmp/
 )

 # ./perf record -e ./test_bpf_base.c ls
 Failed to find the path for kernel: No such file or directory
 event syntax error: './test_bpf_base.c'
                      \___ You need to check probing points in BPF file
 ...

 # ./perf record --vmlinux /tmp/vmlinux -e ./test_bpf_base.c ls
 ...
 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
 [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.011 MB perf.data ]

Help messages when build with NO_LIBBPF:

 # ./perf record -h
        --transaction     sample transaction flags (special events only)
        --vmlinux <file>  vmlinux pathname
                          (not build because NO_LIBBPF=1)
 # ./perf record --vmlinux /tmp/vmlinux ls /
  Warning: option `vmlinux' is not built because NO_LIBBPF=1
 ...
 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]

Help messages when build with NO_DWARF:

        --vmlinux <file>  vmlinux pathname
