#1456353 — [PATCH 1/2] perf script: Show proper message when failed list scripts

Perf shows the usage message when perf scripts folder failed to open,
which misleads users to let them think the command is mistyped. This
patch shows proper message and guide the users to check PERF_EXEC_PATH
environment in that case.

Before:
  $ perf script --list

  Usage: perf script [<options>]
   or: perf script [<options>] record <script> [<record-options>] <command>
   or: perf script [<options>] report <script> [script-args]
   or: perf script [<options>] <script> [<record-options>] <command>
   or: perf script [<options>] <top-script> [script-args]

      -l, --list            list available scripts

After:
  $ perf script --list
  open(/home/user/perf-core/scripts) failed.
  Check for "PERF_EXEC_PATH" env to set scripts dir.

#1456374 — [PATCH 2/2] perf script: Don't disable use_callchain if input is pipe

Because perf data from pipe do not have a header with evsel attr, we
should not check that and disable symbol_conf.use_callchain. Otherwise,
perf script won't show callchains even if the data stream contains
callchain.

Before:
  $ perf record -g -o - uname |perf script
  Linux
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.000 MB - ]
  uname  1828 182630.186578:  250000 cpu-clock:  ..b9499 setup_arg_pages
  uname  1828 182630.186850:  250000 cpu-clock:  ..83b20 ___might_sleep
  uname  1828 182630.187153:  250000 cpu-clock:  ..4b6be file_map_prot_ch
  ...

After:
  $ perf record -g -o - uname |perf script
  Linux
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.000 MB - ]
