This patch introduces basic facilities to support config different
slots in a BPF map one by one.

nr_indics and indics are introduced into 'struct parse_events_term',
where indics is an array of indics which will be configured by this
config term, nr_indics is the size of the array. The array is passed
to 'struct bpf_map_priv'. To indicate the new type of configuration,
BPF_MAP_PRIV_KEY_INDICS is added as a new key type.
bpf_map_config_foreach_key() is extended to iterate over those indics
instead of all possible keys.

This for-loop has a potential problem that, if perf's user want to
set a very big array using indices, for example:

# perf record -e mybpf.c/maps:mymap:values[1,2,3,10-100000,200000-400000]=3/ mybpf.c/maps:mymap:values[100000-200000]=3/ ...

Perf would alloc nearly 300000 slots for indices array, consume too much memory.

I will fix this problem by reinterprete indices array, makes negative
value represent range start and use next slot to store range size. For
example, the above perf cmdline can be converted to:

{1,2,3,-10, 99991,-200000,200001} and {-100000,100001}.

Thank you.
