perf: Factor __output_copy to be usable with specific copy function

Adding a generic way to use __output_copy function with specific copy
function via DEFINE_PERF_OUTPUT_COPY macro.

Using this to add new __output_copy_user function, that provides output
copy from user pointers. For x86 the copy_from_user_nmi function is used
and __copy_from_user_inatomic for the rest of the architectures.

This new function will be used in user stack dump on sample, coming in
next patches.
