13782b8ba8 docs: add perf section to developer docs (James O'Beirne)
58180b5fd4 tests: add utility to easily profile node performance with perf (James O'Beirne)

Pull request description:

  Adds a context manager to easily (and selectively) profile node performance during functional test execution using `perf`.

  While writing some tests, I encountered some odd bitcoind slowness. I wrote up a utility (`TestNode.profile_with_perf`) that generates performance diagnostics for a node by running `perf` during the execution of a particular region of test code.

  `perf` usage is detailed in the excellent (and sadly unmerged) https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/12649; all due props to @eklitzke.

  ### Example

  ```python
  with node.profile_with_perf("large-msgs"):
      for i in range(200):
          node.p2p.send_message(some_large_msg)
      node.p2p.sync_with_ping()
  ```

  This generates a perf data file in the test node's datadir (`/tmp/testtxmpod0y/node0/node-0-TestName-large-msgs.perf.data`).

  Running `perf report` generates nice output about where the node spent most of its time while running that part of the test:

  ```bash
  $ perf report -i /tmp/testtxmpod0y/node0/node-0-TestName-large-msgs.perf.data --stdio \
    | c++filt \
    | less

  # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.
