perf record: Fix way of handling non-perf-event pollfds



perf record __cmd_record() does not poll evlist pollfds. Instead it polls
thread_data[0].pollfd. That happens whether or not threads are being used.

perf record duplicates evlist mmap pollfds as needed for separate threads.
The non-perf-event represented by evlist->ctl_fd has to handled separately,
which is done explicitly, duplicating it into the thread_data[0] pollfds.
That approach neglects any other non-perf-event file descriptors. Currently
there is also done_fd which needs the same handling.

Add a new generalized approach.

Add fdarray_flag__non_perf_event to identify the file descriptors that
need the special handling. For those cases, also keep a mapping of the
evlist pollfd index and thread pollfd index, so that the evlist revents
can be updated.

Although this patch adds the new handling, it does not take it into use.
There is no functional change, but it is the precursor to a fix, so is
marked as a fix.
