Subject: [PATCH] perf tools: Detect when pipe is passed as perf data

Currently we allow pipe input/output only through '-' string
being passed to '-o' or '-i' options, like:

  # mkfifo perf.pipe
  # perf record --no-buffering -e 'sched:sched_switch' -o - > perf.pipe &
  [1] 354406
  # cat perf.pipe | ./perf --no-pager script -i - | head -3
            perf 354406 [000] 168190.164921: sched:sched_switch: perf:354406..
     migration/0    12 [000] 168190.164928: sched:sched_switch: migration/0:..
            perf 354406 [001] 168190.164981: sched:sched_switch: perf:354406..
  ...

This patch detects if given path is pipe and set the perf data
object accordingly, so it's possible now to do above with:

  # mkfifo perf.pipe
  # perf record --no-buffering -e 'sched:sched_switch' -o perf.pipe &
  [1] 360188
  # perf --no-pager script -i ./perf.pipe | head -3
            perf 354442 [000] 168275.464895: sched:sched_switch: perf:354442..
     migration/0    12 [000] 168275.464902: sched:sched_switch: migration/0:..
            perf 354442 [001] 168275.464953: sched:sched_switch: perf:354442..

It's of course possible to combine any of above ways.
