Wang Nan 3c1cb7e372 perf record: Split output into multiple files via '--switch-output' 
Allow 'perf record' to split its output into multiple files.

For example:

  # ~/perf record -a --timestamp-filename --switch-output &
  [1] 10763
  # kill -s SIGUSR2 10763
  [ perf record: dump data: Woken up 1 times ]
  # [ perf record: Dump perf.data.2015122622314468 ]

  # kill -s SIGUSR2 10763
  [ perf record: dump data: Woken up 1 times ]
  # [ perf record: Dump perf.data.2015122622314762 ]

  # kill -s SIGUSR2 10763
  [ perf record: dump data: Woken up 1 times ]
  #[ perf record: Dump perf.data.2015122622315171 ]

  # fg
  perf record -a --timestamp-filename --switch-output
  ^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Dump perf.data.2015122622315513 ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.014 MB perf.data.<timestamp> (296 samples) ]
