Replace the legacy Perl script rwtop.pl with a standalone Python script
in tools/perf/python/rwtop.py using the perf Python module.
Improvements compared to the legacy Perl script:
- Remove the dependency on libperl and Perf::Trace::Util.
- Support both offline perf.data files (via perf.session) and live
recording (via LiveSession with --live), driving periodic interval
summaries from event timestamps rather than wall-clock SIGALRM timers
so both live and offline runs produce deterministic output.
- Convert unsigned 32-bit and 64-bit error return values
(0xfffff000..0xffffffff and >= 0x8000000000000000) to negative errnos
so failed read/write syscalls are recorded in the error table rather
than inflating bytes_read / bytes_written.
- Sanitize non-printable characters in /proc/<pid>/comm to prevent
terminal control sequence injection.
Add a shell test
(test_rwtop_python.sh) to verify the standalone script.
