perf bench: Add basic syscall benchmark

Browse Source 
The usefulness of having a standard way of testing syscall performance
has come up from time to time[0]. Furthermore, some of our testing
machinery (such as 'mmtests') already makes use of a simplified version
of the microbenchmark. This patch mainly takes the same idea to measure
syscall throughput compatible with 'perf-bench' via getppid(2), yet
without any of the additional template stuff from Ingo's version (based
on numa.c). The code is identical to what mmtests uses.

Committer notes:

Add mising stdlib.h and unistd.h to get the prototypes for exit() and
getppid().

Committer testing:

  $ perf bench
  Usage:
  	perf bench [<common options>] <collection> <benchmark> [<options>]

          # List of all available benchmark collections:

           sched: Scheduler and IPC benchmarks
         syscall: System call benchmarks
             mem: Memory access benchmarks
            numa: NUMA scheduling and MM benchmarks
           futex: Futex stressing benchmarks
           epoll: Epoll stressing benchmarks
       internals: Perf-internals benchmarks
             all: All benchmarks

  $
  $ perf bench syscall

          # List of available benchmarks for collection 'syscall':

           basic: Benchmark for basic getppid(2) calls
             all: Run all syscall benchmarks

  $ perf bench syscall basic
  # Running 'syscall/basic' benchmark:
  # Executed 10000000 getppid() calls
       Total time: 3.679 [sec]

         0.367957 usecs/op
          2717708 ops/sec
  $ perf bench syscall all
  # Running syscall/basic benchmark...
  # Executed 10000000 getppid() calls
       Total time: 3.644 [sec]

         0.364456 usecs/op
