[PATCH v13 22/23] perf config: normalize a value depending on default type of it

From: Taeung Song
Date: Fri Jan 08 2016 - 06:42:00 EST


Whether or not user mis-type wrong data type to set config,
normalize the value. If a config user enter isn't contained
in default configs, just pass as it is.
For the examples,

# perf config report.queue-size=1M
# perf config report.queue-size
report.queue-size=1048576
