perf, tools, script: Allow computing metrics in perf script

Add support for computing perf stat style metrics in perf script.

When using leader sampling we can get metrics for each sampling
period by computing formulas over the values of the different
group members.

This allows things like fine grained IPC tracking through sampling,
much more fine grained than with perf stat.

The metric is still averaged over the sampling period,
it is not just for the sampling point.

This patch adds a new metric output field for perf script
that uses the existing perf stat metrics infrastructure to compute
any metrics supported by perf stat.

For example to sample IPC:

$ perf record -e '{ref-cycles,cycles,instructions}:S' -a sleep 1
$ perf script -F metric,ip,sym,time,cpu,comm

TopDown:

This requires disabling SMT if you have it enabled, because
SMT would require sampling per core, which is not supported.

v2:
Use evsel->priv for new fields
Port to new base line, support fp output.
Handle stats in ->stats, not ->priv
