[PATCH 08/38] perf record: Add --index option for building index table

[Namhyung Kim]

The new --index option will create indexed data file which can be
processed by multiple threads parallelly.  It saves meta event and
sample data in separate files and merges them with an index table.

If there's an index table in the data file, the HEADER_DATA_INDEX
feature bit is set and session->header.index[0] will point to the meta
event area, and rest are sample data.  It'd look like below:

        +---------------------+
        |     file header     |
        |---------------------|
        |                     |
        |    meta events[0] <-+--+
        |                     |  |
        |---------------------|  |
        |                     |  |
        |    sample data[1] <-+--+
        |                     |  |
        |---------------------|  |
        |                     |  |
        |    sample data[2] <-|--+
        |                     |  |
        |---------------------|  |
        |         ...         | ...
        |---------------------|  |
        |     feature data    |  |
        |   (contains index) -+--+
        +---------------------+
