Subject: [PATCH v2] perf evlist: Remove group option.
The group option predates grouping events using curly braces added in
commit 89efb029502d ("perf tools: Add support to parse event group syntax")
The --group option was retained for legacy support (in August 2012) but
keeping it adds complexity.
v2. is a rebase.
Signed-off-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@...gle.com>
