  Pin vCPUs to a host physical CPUs (pCPUs) in dirty_log_perf_test and
optionally pin the main application thread to a physical cpu if
provided. All tests based on perf_test_util framework can take advantage
of it if needed.

While at it, I changed atoi() to atoi_paranoid(), atoi_positive,
atoi_non_negative() in other tests, sorted command line options
alphabetically in dirty_log_perf_test, and added break between -e and -g
which was missed in original commit when -e was introduced.

v6:
- Updated the shortlog of Patch 5.
- Changed formatting of help text of -c in dirty_log_perf_test

v5: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20221010220538.1154054-1-vipinsh@google.com/
- Added atoi_postive() and atoi_non_negative() APIs for string parsing.
- Using sched_getaffinity() to verify if a pCPU is allowed or not.
- Changed Suggested-by to add only person came up with original idea of
  pinning.
- Updated strings and commit messages.

v4: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20221006171133.372359-1-vipinsh@google.com/
- Moved boolean to check vCPUs pinning from perf_test_vcpu_args to
  perf_test_args.
- Changed assert statements to make error more descriptive.
- Modified break statement between 'e' and 'g' option in v3 by not copying
  dirty_log_manual_caps = 0 to 'e'.

v3: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220826184500.1940077-1-vipinsh@google.com
- Moved atoi_paranoid() to test_util.c and replaced all atoi() usage
  with atoi_paranoid()
- Sorted command line options alphabetically.
- Instead of creating a vcpu thread on a specific pcpu the thread will
  migrate to the provided pcpu after its creation.
- Decoupled -e and -g option.

v2: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220819210737.763135-1-vipinsh@google.com/
- Removed -d option.
- One cpu list passed as option, cpus for vcpus, followed by
  application thread cpu.
- Added paranoid cousin of atoi().

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220817152956.4056410-1-vipinsh@google.com
