Subject: [PATCH v9 12/15] perf stat: introduce --control fd:ctl-fd[,ack-fd]
options
Introduce --control fd:ctl-fd[,ack-fd] options to pass open file
descriptors numbers from command line. Extend perf-stat.txt file
with --control fd:ctl-fd[,ack-fd] options description. Document
possible usage model introduced by --control fd:ctl-fd[,ack-fd]
options by providing example bash shell script.

+--control fd:ctl-fd[,ack-fd]
+Listen on ctl-fd descriptor for command to control measurement ('enable': enable events,
+'disable': disable events). Measurements can be started with events disabled using
+--delay=-1 option. Optionally send control command completion ('ack\n') to ack-fd descriptor
+to synchronize with the controlling process. Example of bash shell script to enable and
+disable events during measurements:
+
+#!/bin/bash
+
+ctl_dir=/tmp/
