perf stat: Introduce --per-thread option
Currently all the -p option PID arguments tasks values get aggregated
and printed as single values.
Adding --per-tasks option to print values per task.
$ perf stat -e cycles,instructions --per-thread -p 30190,30242
^C
Performance counter stats for process id '30190,30242':
cat-30190 0 cycles
yes-30242 3,842,525,421 cycles
cat-30190 0 instructions
yes-30242 10,370,817,010 instructions
1.143155657 seconds time elapsed
Also works under interval mode:
$ perf stat -e cycles,instructions --per-thread -p 30190,30242 -I 1000
# time comm-pid counts unit events
1.000073435 cat-30190 89,058 cycles

2.771286639 cat-30190 0 instructions
2.771286639 yes-30242 7,001,171,191 instructions
It works only with -t and -p options, otherwise following error is
printed:
$ perf stat -e cycles --per-thread -I 1000 ls
The --per-thread option is only available when monitoring via -p -t options.
-p, --pid <pid> stat events on existing process id
-t, --tid <tid> stat events on existing thread id
