[OE-core] [PATCH] systemtap runtime test, ping for outstanding systemtap fixes

[Victor Kamensky]

Hi Folks,

Based on my conversation with Richard during conference please find
patch that does native SystemTap stap basic test. Note it is for native
stap use. It is not SystemTap cross compilation test that Ee Peng
is trying to cover in [1]. Actually, I wrote this small test before
I saw message from Ee Peng for crosstap test, but I did not have
time to post it.

Note native SystemTap stap run on qemu machine only feasible on x86
qemu. IMO it would run too long on qemu target with other CPU types.
Test should be executed against something like core-image-lsb-sdk
image, otherwise it would be skipped.

Also, could someone, if possible, please merge outstanding fixes for
systemtap [2] and [3]. Khem did ack on both a while back. Currently
with 4.15 kernel in openembedded-core systemtap in native or cross
mode is broken. Test I am posting would catch current breakage. When
[3] is applied test would pass.
