Subject: [PATCH 1/2] perf tools: Add reference timestamp to perf header

Add a reference timestamp to the perf header - snapshotting kernel
time to gettimeofday. This allows 'perf report' to convert kernel
timestamps to time-of-day which is convenient for comparing to other
(non perf related) log files.

The timestamp is added using a feature bit for compatibility with
older binaries and data files.
