Subject: [PATCH] perf data: Add JSON export
This adds a feature to export perf data to JSON. It uses a minimal
inline JSON encoding, no external dependencies. Currently it only
outputs some headers and sample metadata but it's easily extensible.
Use it like this:
perf data convert --to-json out.json
