[PATCH v1] perf test: Introduce script for data symbol parsing

[Leo Yan]

This commit introduces a shell script for data symbol parsing.

The testing is designed a data structure with 64-byte alignment, and it
has two fields "data1" and "data2", and other fields are reserved.

Using "perf mem" command, it records and reports memory samples for a
workload with 1 second duration.  If have no any memory sample for the
data structure "buf1", it reports failure;  and any memory accessing for
the data structure is not for "data1" and "data2" filed, it also means
the wrong data symbol parsing and returns failure.
