perf top: Use cond variable instead of a lock
Use conditional variable logic to synchronize between the reading and
processing threads. Currently it's done by having mutex around rotation
code.
Using a POSIX cond variable to sync both threads after queues rotation:
Process thread:
- Detects data
- Switches queues
- Sets rotate variable
- Waits in pthread_cond_wait()
Read thread:
- Detects rotate is set
- Kicks the process thread with a pthread_cond_signal()
After this rotation is safely completed and both threads can continue
with the new queue.
