This is follow up series based on reviews for
https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/28104/

Major change is assignment of samples at the time of request submission
onto HW instead of assigning at user submission time. Restructured
patches to make some of the earlier code-heavy patches little lighter
by modularizing them. Added base i-g-t testcase dapc for testing exposed
sample fields like PID, Timestamps, CTX ID etc.

Reiterating the intent of this series:
1. Collection of OA reports associated with the render command stream, which
are collected around batchbuffer boundaries.
2. Collect other metadata such as ctx_id, pid, tag etc. with the samples,
and thus we can establish the association of samples collected with the
corresponding process/workload.
3. Collection of GPU performance metrics associated with the command stream of
a particular engine. These metrics include timestamps of work submission and
completion on engines, mmio metrics, etc. These metrics are are collected
around batchbuffer boundaries.

Functionality to be added in future patches:
1. GPU/CPU cross-timestamp sync patches need to be reworked as requested by
   kernel maintainers.
2. Some of the data types being collected through these patches can be done in
   the userspace and that is yet to be finalized. Based on that some of the
   functionality from this series can be pruned.
