Current implementation of cpu_set_t type by glibc has internal cpu
mask size limitation of no more than 1024 CPUs. This limitation confines
NUMA awareness of Perf tool in record mode, thru --affinity option,
to the first 1024 CPUs on machines with larger amount of CPUs.

This patch set enables Perf tool to overcome 1024 CPUs limitation by
using a dedicated struct mmap_cpu_mask type and applying tool's bitmap
API operations to manipulate affinity masks of the tool's thread and
the mmaped data buffers.

tools bitmap API has been extended with bitmap_free() function and
bitmap_equal() operation whose implementation is derived from the
kernel one.

Changes in v3:
- implemented perf_mmap__print_cpu_mask() function
- use perf_mmap__print_cpu_mask() to log thread and mmap cpus masks
  when verbose level is equal to 2
Changes in v2:
- implemented bitmap_free() for symmetry with bitmap_alloc()
- capitalized MMAP_CPU_MASK_BYTES() macro
- returned -1 from perf_mmap__setup_affinity_mask()
- implemented releasing of masks using bitmap_free()
- moved debug printing under -vv option
