[PATCH v6 56/59] perf script: Refactor to support standalone scripts and remove legacy features

[Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com>]

- Remove -g / --gen-script option as it is no longer needed.
- Hide -s / --script option to imply running standalone scripts
  directly.
- Update find_script to search in 'python' instead of
  'scripts/python'.
- Add support for launching standalone scripts using fork and execvp,
  skipping the event processing loop.
- Update list_available_scripts to look for .py files directly in
  'python' directory.
- Remove all references to scripting_ops and clean up unused functions
  and variables.

v2:

 - Fixed strncat buffer overflow: Updated the strncat call in
   find_script() to correctly use the remaining capacity of the
   destination buffer instead of sizeof(path) - 1 . The declaration of
   len was moved to the top of the function to conform to C style
   guidelines.

 - Fixed execvp path searching: If find_script() finds a local file in
   the current directory without a slash, it now prepends ./ to it.
   This ensures that execvp() executed by the child process knows to
   look in the current directory rather than searching the system
   $PATH .

 - Fixed premature loop termination in docstring parsing: Removed a
   check in read_script_info() that caused the loop to terminate early
   if any fallback description was found (like an SPDX
   identifier). This restores the intended behavior of searching the
   entire header for a better "description:" tag.

 - Updated subcommands and usage: Removed "record" and "report" from
   the usage text and stopped passing them as valid subcommands to
   parse_options_subcommand() .

 - Fixed lost command-line options: Reconstructed the arguments passed
   to the standalone script to include -i and the input file path,
   ensuring that the user's choice of input file is not lost.

 - Added error message on execvp failure: Added a pr_err call in the
   child process to print a descriptive error message if execvp()
   fails to launch the script.

 - Fixed uninitialized status in waitpid : Initialized status to 0 and
   verified that waitpid() successfully returned the child's PID
   before evaluating its exit status. Also removed unnecessary braces
   and fixed indentation in that block.
