Chris Phlipot 616df645d7 perf tools: Fix perf script python database export crash
Remove the union in evsel so that the database id and priv pointer can
be used simultainously without conflicting and crashing.

Detailed Description for the fixed bug follows:

perf script crashes with a segmentation fault on user space tool version
4.5.rc7.ge2857b when using the python database export API. It works
properly in 4.4 and prior versions.

the crash fist appeared in:

cfc8874a48 ("perf script: Process cpu/threads maps")

How to reproduce the bug:

Remove any temporary files left over from a previous crash (if you have
already attemped to reproduce the bug):

  $ rm -r test_db-perf-data
  $ dropdb test_db

  $ perf record timeout 1 yes >/dev/null
  $ perf script -s scripts/python/export-to-postgresql.py test_db

  Stack Trace:
  Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
  __GI___libc_free (mem=0x1) at malloc.c:2929
  2929	malloc.c: No such file or directory.
