Use a hashmap between a char* string and a double* value. While bpf's
hashmap entries are size_t in size, we can't guarantee sizeof(size_t) >=
sizeof(double). Avoid a memory allocation when gathering ids by making
0.0 a special value encoded as NULL.

Original map suggestion by Andi Kleen:

  https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200224210308.GQ160988@tassilo.jf.intel.com/

and seconded by Jiri Olsa:

  https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200423112915.GH1136647@krava/

Committer notes:

There are fixes that need to land upstream before we can use libbpf's
headers, for now use our copy unconditionally, since the data structures
at this point are exactly the same, no problem.

When the fixes for libbpf's hashmap land upstream, we can fix this up.

Testing it:

Building with LIBBPF=1, i.e. the default:

  $ perf -vv | grep -i bpf
                     bpf: [ on  ]  # HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT
  $ nm ~/bin/perf | grep -i libbpf_ | wc -l
  39
  $ nm ~/bin/perf | grep -i hashmap_ | wc -l
  17
  $

Explicitely building without LIBBPF:

  $ perf -vv | grep -i bpf
                     bpf: [ OFF ]  # HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT
  $
  $ nm ~/bin/perf | grep -i libbpf_ | wc -l
  0
  $ nm ~/bin/perf | grep -i hashmap_ | wc -l
  9
  $
