[PATCH] perf bench: flush stats when pipe it to a file or to tee

[Sohaib Mohamed]

The output of perf bench gets buffered when I pipe it to a file or to
tee, in such a way that I can see it only at the end.

E.g.
$ perf bench internals synthesize -t
< output comes out fine after each test run >

$ perf bench internals synthesize -t | tee file.txt
< output comes out only at the end of all tests >

See, also:
$ perf bench mem all | tee file.txt
$ perf bench sched all | tee file.txt
$ perf bench internals all -t | tee file.txt
$ perf bench internals all | tee file.txt
