It seems it only allows to remove 'const' qualifier.

Several areas already used this technique, so do some audit to
consistently use it elsewhere.

As suggested by tglx, 'self' should be replaced by something that is
more useful.

commit ee8dd3ca43
causes a double free during a probe deletion as the node is never
removed from the list via strlist__remove(), even though it gets
'deleted' (read free()'d). This causes a double free when we do
strlist__delete() as the node is already deleted but present in the
rblist.
[suzukikp@suzukikp perf]$ sudo ./perf probe -a do_fork
Added new event:
probe:do_fork (on do_fork)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:do_fork -aR sleep 1
[suzukikp@suzukikp perf]$ sudo ./perf probe -d do_fork
Removed event: probe:do_fork

Make sure we remove the node from the rblist before we delete the node.
The rblist__remove_node() will invoke rblist->node_delete, which will
take care of deleting the node with the suitable function provided by
the user.

Replaces the direct use of rbtree code with the rblist API. In the end
the patch is a no-op on strlist functionality; the API for strlist is
not changed, only its implementaton.

The strlist__entry method allows accessing strlists like an
array, will be used in the 'perf report' to access the first
entry.
We now keep the nr_entries so that we can check if we have just
one entry, will be used in 'perf report' to improve the output
by showing just at the top when we have just, say, one DSO.
While at it use nr_entries to optimize strlist__is_empty by not
using the far more costly rb_first based implementation.
