There are 43 instances of posix shell tests and 35 instances of bash. To
give us a single consistent language for testing in, replace
all #!/bin/sh to #!/bin/bash. Common sources that are included in both
different shells will now work as expected. And we no longer have to fix
up bashisms that appear to work when someone's system has sh symlinked
to bash, but don't work on other systems that have both shells
installed.
Although we could have chosen sh, it's not backwards compatible so it
wouldn't be possible to bulk convert without re-writing the existing
bash tests.
Choosing bash also gives us some nicer features including 'local'
variable definitions and regexes in if statements that are already
widely used in the tests.
It's not expected that there are any users with only sh available due to
the large number of bash tests that exist.

Running shellcheck on stat+shadow_stat.sh generates below
warning
In tests/shell/stat+csv_summary.sh line 26:
while read _num _event _run _pct
^--^ SC2034: _num appears unused. Verify use (or export if used externally).
^----^ SC2034: _event appears unused. Verify use (or export if used externally).
^--^ SC2034: _run appears unused. Verify use (or export if used externally).
^--^ SC2034: _pct appears unused. Verify use (or export if used externally).
This variable is intentionally unused since it is
needed to parse through the output. commit used "_"
as a prefix for this throw away variable. But this
stil shows warning with shellcheck v0.6. Fix this
by only using "_" instead of prefix and variable name.

The test was failing in specific scenarios due to imperfection of FP
arithmetics. The `bc` command wasn't correctly rounding the result of
division causing the failure.
Replace the `bc` with `awk` which should work with more decimal places
and add a threshold to catch any possible rounding errors. The
acceptable rounding error is set to 0.01 when the test passes with a
warning message.

It was using some bash-specific features and failed to parse when
running with a different shell like below:

It calculates IPC from the cycles and instruction counts and compares it
with the shadow stat for both global aggregation (default) and no
aggregation mode.
$ perf stat -a -A -e cycles,instructions sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
CPU0 39,580,880 cycles
CPU1 45,426,945 cycles
CPU2 31,151,685 cycles
CPU3 55,167,421 cycles
CPU0 17,073,564 instructions # 0.43 insn per cycle
CPU1 34,955,764 instructions # 0.77 insn per cycle
CPU2 15,688,459 instructions # 0.50 insn per cycle
CPU3 34,699,217 instructions # 0.63 insn per cycle
1.003275495 seconds time elapsed
In this example, the 'insn per cycle' should be matched to the number
for each cpu. For CPU2, 0.50 = 15,688,459 / 31,151,685 .
