Subject: [PATCH] perf: add no-aggregation mode to perf stat -a

This patch adds a new -A option to perf stat. If specified then perf stat
does not aggregate counts across all monitored CPUs in system-wide mode, i.e.,
when using -a. This option is not supported in per-thread mode.

Being able to get a per-cpu breakdown is useful to detect imbalances between
CPUs when running a uniform workload than spans all monitored CPUs.

Examples on a 4-way system:

# perf stat -a   -e cycles,instructions -- sleep 1
 Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1':
         9592808135  cycles                  
         3490380006  instructions             #      0.364 IPC  
        1.001584632  seconds time elapsed


# perf stat -a -A -e cycles,instructions -- sleep 1
 Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1':
CPU0            2398163767  cycles                  
CPU1            2398180817  cycles                  
CPU2            2398217115  cycles                  
CPU3            2398247483  cycles                  
CPU0             872282046  instructions             #      0.364 IPC  
CPU1             873481776  instructions             #      0.364 IPC  
CPU2             872638127  instructions             #      0.364 IPC  
CPU3             872437789  instructions             #      0.364 IPC  
        1.001556052  seconds time elapsed
