`tests/rocprofiler/rocprofiler.cpp` uses `std::string` without including `<string>` directly. This works with libstdc++ due to transitive includes, but fails with libc++. Closes #1240
rocprofiler-register
Overview
The rocprofiler-register library is a helper library that coordinates the modification of the intercept API table(s) of the HSA/HIP/ROCTx runtime libraries by the ROCprofiler (v2) library. The purpose of this library is to provide a consistent and automated mechanism of enabling performance analysis in the ROCm runtimes which does not rely on environment variables or unique methods for each runtime library.
When a runtime is initialized (either explicitly and lazily) and the intercept API table is constructed, it passes this API table to
rocprofiler-register. Rocprofiler-register scans the symbols in the address space and if it detects there is at least one visible symbol named
rocprofiler_configure (which is a function provided by tools), it passes the intercept API table to the rocprofiler library (dlopening
the rocprofiler library if it is not already loaded). The rocprofiler library then does an extensive scan for all the instances of
the rocprofiler_configure symbols and invokes each of them. The rocprofiler_configure function (again, provided by a tool) returns
effectively tells rocprofiler which behaviors it wants to be notified about, features it wants to use (e.g. API tracing, kernel dispatch timing),
etc.

Contributing
The default branch is develop.
All pull-requests should target the

Creating a feature branch
# fetch any updates
git fetch origin
# switch to development branch
git checkout develop
# update your copy of the development branch
git pull --rebase
# create your feature branch off of develop branch
git checkout -b <feature-branch>
In the event, your local clone of the repo has a develop branch that diverges from the upstream branch,
do a hard reset of your local branch to match the upstream branch: git reset --hard origin/develop.
Pulling in updates to develop to your feature branch
Linear histories are preferred so if another PR is merged into develop while your PR is still open, please
select the "Update with rebase" option (i.e. try to avoid a merge commit). From the command line, the git command
would be git pull --rebase origin develop.
Build and Installation
rocprofiler-register has a standard CMake build and install process. E.g. the following configure
rocprofiler-register to build with optimizations and without debug info in a build-rocp-reg subdirectory,
build using 4 jobs, and install to /opt/rocprofiler-register:
cmake -B build-rocp-reg . -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/rocprofiler-register
cmake --build build-rocp-reg --target all --parallel 4
cmake --build build-rocp-reg --target install
