The actions_parse() function uses strtok() to tokenize the trigger
string, but does not check if the returned token is NULL before
passing it to strcmp(). If the trigger parameter is an empty string
or contains only delimiter characters, strtok() returns NULL, causing
strcmp() to dereference a NULL pointer and crash the program.
This issue can be triggered by malformed user input or edge cases in
trigger string parsing. Add a NULL check immediately after the strtok()
call to validate that a token was successfully extracted before using
it. If no token is found, the function now returns -1 to indicate a
parsing error.

The actions struct is allocated using calloc, which already returns
zeroed memory. The subsequent memset call to zero the 'present' member
is therefore redundant.

The atoi() function does not perform error checking, which can lead to
undefined behavior when parsing invalid or out-of-range strings. This
can cause issues when parsing user-provided numerical inputs, such as
signal numbers, PIDs, or CPU lists.
To address this, introduce a new strtoi() helper function that safely
converts a string to an integer. This function validates the input and
checks for overflows, returning a negative value on failure.
Replace all calls to atoi() with the new strtoi() function and add
proper error handling to make the parsing more robust and prevent
potential issues.

The for loop to iterate over the list of actions is used in
more than one place. To avoid code duplication and improve
readability, introduce a for_each_action() helper macro.
Replace the open-coded for loops with the new helper.

The condition to check if the actions buffer needs to be resized was
incorrect. The check `self->size >= self->len` would evaluate to
true on almost every call to `actions_new()`, causing the buffer to
be reallocated unnecessarily each time an action was added.
Fix the condition to `self->len >= self.size`, ensuring
that the buffer is only resized when it is actually full.

Currently, tests 3 and 13-22 in tests/timerlat.t fail with error:
*** buffer overflow detected ***: terminated
timeout: the monitored command dumped core
The result of running `sudo make check` is

Fix buffer overflow in actions_parse to avoid this error. After this

The basic functionality came with the consolidation; now hook up the
command line options, and add documentation and tests.

Introduce option to resume tracing after a latency threshold overflow.
The option is implemented as an action named "continue".
Example:
$ rtla timerlat top -q -T 200 -d 1s --on-threshold \
exec,command="echo Threshold" --on-threshold continue
Threshold
Threshold
Threshold
Timer Latency
...
The feature is supported for both hist and top. After the continue
action is executed, processing of the list of actions is stopped and
tracing is resumed.

Extend the functionality provided by the -t/--trace option, which
triggers saving the contents of a tracefs buffer after tracing is
stopped, to support implementing arbitrary actions.
A new option, --on-threshold, is added, taking an argument
that further specifies the action. Actions added in this patch are:
- trace[,file=<filename>]: Saves tracefs buffer, optionally taking a
filename.
- signal,num=<sig>,pid=<pid>: Sends signal to process. "parent" might
be specified instead of number to send signal to parent process.
- shell,command=<command>: Execute shell command.
Multiple actions may be specified and will be executed in order,
including multiple actions of the same type. Trace output requested via
-t and -a now adds a trace action to the end of the list.
If an action fails, the following actions are not executed. For
example, this command:
$ rtla timerlat -T 20 --on-threshold trace \
--on-threshold shell,command="grep ipi_send timerlat_trace.txt" \
--on-threshold signal,num=2,pid=parent
will send signal 2 (SIGINT) to parent process, but only if saved trace
contains the text "ipi_send".
This way, the feature can be used for flexible reactions on latency
spikes, and allows combining rtla with other tooling like perf.
