[patch 1 of 3] 3.2 test - categorize profiling

[David Disseldorp]

Hi,

Currently in Samba 3, profiling statistics (syscalls, smbs, etc.) can be
enabled or disabled for count or time metrics only.

This change makes profiling more granular by allowing the user to enable
or disable stats collection on a per category/action basis.

In addition to previously supported <profilinglevel> arguments to smbd
and smbcontrol, a string in the format category:action can now be
provided for <profilinglevel>.

Where category is one of:
        "all"
        "General"
        "System Calls"
        "Stat Cache"
        "Write Cache"
        "SMB"
        "Pathworks"
        "Trans2"
        "NT Transact"
        "ACL"
        "NetBIOS"

and action is one of:
        "all"
        "count"
        "bytes"
        "time"

e.g. # smbd -P "SMB:count,System Calls:all" will start smbd with
counters incremented for each incoming SMB, as well as count, time
and byte counters for system calls.
