Add multi-uprobe and multi-uretprobe benchmarks to bench tool.
Multi- and classic uprobes/uretprobes have different low-level
triggering code paths, so it's sometimes important to be able to
benchmark both flavors of uprobes/uretprobes.
Sample examples from my dev machine below. Single-threaded peformance
almost doesn't differ, but with more parallel CPUs triggering the same
uprobe/uretprobe the difference grows. This might be due to [0], but
given the code is slightly different, there could be other sources of
slowdown.
Note, all these numbers will change due to ongoing work to improve
uprobe/uretprobe scalability (e.g., [1]), but having benchmark like this
is useful for measurements and debugging nevertheless.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
