Subject: [PATCH 25/46] perf record: Force enable --timestamp-filename when --switch-output is provided

Without this patch, the last output doesn't have timestamp appended if
--timestamp-filename is not explicitly provided. For example:

 # perf record -a --switch-output &
 [1] 11224
 # kill -s SIGUSR2 11224
 [ perf record: dump data: Woken up 1 times ]
 # [ perf record: Dump perf.data.2015122622372823 ]

 # fg
 perf record -a --switch-output
 ^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
 [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.027 MB perf.data (540 samples) ]

 # ls -l
 total 836
 -rw------- 1 root root  33256 Dec 26 22:37 perf.data   <---- *Odd*
 -rw------- 1 root root 817156 Dec 26 22:37 perf.data.2015122622372823
