Revert "Force lua main.c to include luajit headers"

This reverts commit c21b9c03.

Instead, use `LUAJIT_DIR=/usr/include/luajit-2.0 cmake ..` or similar as
required.

There are two problems here:
 1. bcc is leaving the extra function parameters in the prototype, when
 these really just serve as an annotation on the method being traced.
 They aren't really passed into the function. LLVM lowering phase later
 errors out on such functions.
 2. bcc doesn't limit the size of the argument list, when currently it
 just supports up to the number of arguments held in registers (6).

Fix 1. by rewriting the arguments out of the prototype and into the
preamble where they are currently being initialized.
Fix 2. by enforcing the limit and returning a more meaningful error
message.

Added a test case.

Extra fix included for string type on python3.

Force lua main.c to include luajit headers

On my system, when both lua and luajit are installed, multiple headers
exist in /usr/include. However, my lua installation is 5.3, which has
some api-breaking changes, which means that the standard lua.h must not
be included.

Simply force lua.h to come from luajit-2.0 directory.

Make style-check test non-blocking

Since the codebase is as of yet inconsistent, disable per-commit style
check enforcement.

This should be turned back on once the codebase style is consistent.

Adjust pid filtering/display in runqlat

The filtering and display of pids in the runqlat tool was not correct.
Internally, the kernel keeps pid and tgid, which correspond to thread-id
and user process-id, respectively. The runqlat tool was filtering and
displaying pid instead of tgid.

Change -P and -p options to filter by tgid, and add a new option to give
a breakdown by pid (thread-id).

Update the docs with the -L option.

Even after fixing the nested union issue in the preceding commits, this
example was failing. The reason was that the kernel was filling in all
bits of the bpf_tunnel_key, which in recent kernels includes non-zero
fields such as ttl. That non-zero field would break the lookup in the
tunkey2if table, which was populated assuming all extra bytes would be
zero.

Fix it by defining a simpler key structure, and copy the required fields
out from the local variable.
