perf trace requires root because it needs to use [ku]probes.
Skip those test when it's not run as root.
Before:
$ perf test probe
47: Probe SDT events : Ok
104: test perf probe of function from different CU : FAILED!
115: perftool-testsuite_probe : FAILED!
117: Add vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : FAILED!
118: probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping : FAILED!
119: Use vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : FAILED!
After:
$ perf test probe
47: Probe SDT events : Ok
104: test perf probe of function from different CU : Skip
115: perftool-testsuite_probe : Skip
117: Add vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : Skip
118: probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping : Skip
119: Use vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : Skip

Test "perf probe of function from different CU" only checks if the perf
command has failed and doesn't test the --funcs output. In the issue
reported in the previous commit, the garbage output of the --funcs
command was being ignored by the test when it could have been caught.
The script first makes use of --funcs option with the perf probe command
to check if the function "foo" exists in the testfile before adding a
probe to it in the next command. The output of probe...--funcs command
is redirected to stdout, therefore, add '| grep "foo"' to validate the
result.
