Subject: [PATCH V4 21/24] perf tools: Intel PT to always update thread stack trace number

The enhanced thread stack is used by higher layers but still
requires the trace number.  The trace number is used to
distinguish discontinuous sections of trace (for example
from Snapshot mode or Sample mode), which cause the thread
stack to be flushed.
