Subject: [PATCH 6/9] perf evlist: Add API to pause/resume

From: Wang Nan <wangnan0@...wei.com>

perf_evlist__toggle_{pause,resume}() are introduced to pause/resume
events in an evlist. Utilize PERF_EVENT_IOC_PAUSE_OUTPUT ioctl.

Following commits use them to ensure overwrite ring buffer is paused
before reading.

[ Return -1, like all other ioctl() usage in evlist.c, rename 'pause'
  arg to avoid breaking the build on ubuntu 12.04 and other old systems ]
