Subject: [PATCH 08/19] perf tools: Flush ordered events in case of allocation failure

In previous patches we added a limit for ordered events
queue allocation size. If we reach this size we need to
flush (part of) the queue to get some free buffers.

The current functionality is not affected, because the
limit is hard coded to (u64) -1. The configuration code
for size will come in following patches.
