[PATCH v1 00/26] Constify tool pointers

struct perf_tool provides a set of function pointers that are called
through when processing perf data. To make filling the pointers less
cumbersome, if they are NULL perf_tools__fill_defaults will add
default do nothing implementations.

This change refactors struct perf_tool to have an init function that
provides the default implementation. The special use of NULL and
perf_tools__fill_defaults are removed. As a consequence the tool
pointers can then all be made const, which better reflects the
behavior a particular perf command would expect of the tool and to
some extent can reduce the cognitive load on someone working on a
command.

Ian Rogers (26):
