Subject: [PATCH v3 09/23] perf: Support overwrite mode for AUX area
This adds support for overwrite mode in the AUX area, which means "keep
collecting data till you're stopped". It does not depend on data buffer's
overwrite mode, so that it doesn't lose sideband data that is instrumental
for processing AUX data.
