Subject: [PATCH v1 4/5] perf/x86/intel/pt: Move transaction start/stop to pmu start/stop callbacks

As per AUX buffer management requirement, AUX output has to happen between
pmu::start and pmu::stop calls so that perf_event_stop() actually stops it
and therefore perf can free the aux data after it has called pmu::stop.

This patch moves perf_aux_output_{begin,end} from pt_event_{add,del} to
pt_event_{start,stop}. As a bonus, we get rid of pt_buffer_is_full(),
which is already taken care of by perf_aux_output_begin() anyway.
