perf record has supported --all-kernel / --all-user to configure all used
events to run in kernel space or in user space. But perf stat doesn't support
that. It would be useful to support these options so that we can collect
metrics for e.g. user space only without having to type ":u" in the events
manually.
Also it would be useful if --all-user / --all-kernel could be specified
together, and the tool would automatically add two copies of the events,
so that we get a break down between user and kernel.
Since we need to support specifying both --all-user and --all-kernel together,
we can't do as what the perf record does for supporting --all-user /
--all-kernel (it sets attr->exclude_kernel and attr->exclude_user).
This patch uses another solution which appends the modifiers ":u"/":k" to
event string.
For example,
perf stat -e cycles,instructions --all-user --all-kernel
It's automatically expanded to:
perf stat -e cycles:k,instructions:k,cycles:u,instructions:u

Note:
1. This patch can only configure the specified events (-e xxx) to run
in user space or in kernel space. For supporting other options, such as
--topdown, need follow-up patches.
2. In perf-record, it has already supported the --all-kernel and
--all-user, but they can't be combined. We should keep the behavior
consistent among all perf subtools. So if this patch can be accepted,
will post follow-up patches for supporting other subtools for the
same behavior.
