To collect the overall statistics for interval mode, we copy the counts
from evsel->prev_raw_counts to evsel->counts.
For AGGR_GLOBAL mode, because the perf_stat_process_counter creates aggr
values from per cpu values, but the per cpu values are 0, so the
calculated aggr values will be always 0.
This patch uses a trick that saves the previous aggr value to the first
member of perf_counts, then aggr calculation in process_counter_values
can work correctly for AGGR_GLOBAL.

It would be useful to support the overall statistics for perf-stat
interval mode. For example, report the summary at the end of "perf-stat
-I" output.
But since perf-stat can support many aggregation modes, such as
--per-thread, --per-socket, -M and etc, we need a solution which doesn't
bring much complexity.
The idea is to use 'evsel->prev_raw_counts' which is updated in each
interval and it's saved with the latest counts. Before reporting the
summary, we copy the counts from evsel->prev_raw_counts to
evsel->counts, and next we just follow non-interval processing.
v5:
---
Don't save the previous aggr value to the member of [cpu0,thread0]
in perf_counts. Originally that was a trick because the
perf_stat_process_counter would create aggr values from per cpu
values. But we don't need to do that all the time. We will
handle it in next patch.

Restructure the event opening in perf stat to cycle through the events
by CPU after setting affinity to that CPU.
This eliminates IPI overhead in the perf API.
We have to loop through the CPU in the outter builtin-stat code instead
of leaving that to low level functions.
It has to change the weak group fallback strategy slightly. Since we
cannot easily undo the opens for other CPUs move the weak group retry to
a separate loop.
Before with a large test case with 94 CPUs:
% time seconds usecs/call calls errors syscall
------ ----------- ----------- --------- --------- ----------------
42.75 4.050910 67 60046 110 perf_event_open
After:
26.86 0.944396 16 58069 110 perf_event_open
(the number changes slightly because the weak group retries
work differently and the test case relies on weak groups)

prev_raw_counts is allocated when using intervals. This is used when
calculating the difference in the counts of events when using interval.
The current counts are stored in prev_raw_counts to calculate the
differences in the next iteration.
On the first interval of the second and subsequent repetitions,
prev_raw_counts would be the values stored in the last interval of the
previous repetitions, while the current counts will only be for the
first interval of the current repetition.
Hence there is a possibility of events showing up as big number.
Fix this by resetting prev_raw_counts whenever perf stat repeats the
command.

In places where the equivalent was already being done, i.e.:
free(a);
a = NULL;
And in placs where struct members are being freed so that if we have
some erroneous reference to its struct, then accesses to freed members
will result in segfaults, which we can detect faster than use after free
to areas that may still have something seemingly valid.

It is useful to aggregate counts per die. E.g. Uncore becomes die-scope
on Xeon Cascade Lake-AP.
Introduce a new option "--per-die" to support per-die aggregation.
The global id for each core has been changed to socket + die id + core
id. The global id for each die is socket + die id.
Add die information for per-core aggregation. The output of per-core
aggregation will be changed from "S0-C0" to "S0-D0-C0". Any scripts
which rely on the output format of per-core aggregation probably be
broken.
For 'perf stat record/report', there is no die information when
processing the old perf.data. The per-die result will be the same as
per-socket.

With this patch, we can use the 'percore' event qualifier in perf-stat.
root@skl:/tmp# perf stat -e cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/,cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ -a -A -I1000
1.000773050 S0-C0 98,352,832 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/ (50.01%)
1.000773050 S0-C1 103,763,057 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/ (50.02%)
1.000773050 S0-C2 196,776,995 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/ (50.02%)
1.000773050 S0-C3 176,493,779 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/ (50.02%)
1.000773050 CPU0 47,699,641 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (50.02%)
1.000773050 CPU1 49,052,451 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (49.98%)
1.000773050 CPU2 102,771,422 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (49.98%)
1.000773050 CPU3 100,784,662 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (49.98%)
1.000773050 CPU4 43,171,342 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (49.98%)
1.000773050 CPU5 54,152,158 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (49.98%)
1.000773050 CPU6 93,618,410 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (49.98%)
1.000773050 CPU7 74,477,589 cpu/event=0,umask=0x3/ (49.99%)
In this example, we count the event 'ref-cycles' per-core and per-CPU in
one perf stat command-line. From the output, we can see:
S0-C0 = CPU0 + CPU4
S0-C1 = CPU1 + CPU5
S0-C2 = CPU2 + CPU6
S0-C3 = CPU3 + CPU7
So the result is expected (tiny difference is ignored).
Note that, the 'percore' event qualifier needs to use with option '-A'.

The -c option to enable multiplex scaling has been useless for quite
some time because scaling is default.
It's only useful as --no-scale to disable scaling. But the non scaling
code path has bitrotted and doesn't print anything because perf output
code relies on value run/ena information.
Also even when we don't want to scale a value it's still useful to show
its multiplex percentage.
This patch:
- Fixes help and documentation to show --no-scale instead of -c
- Removes -c, only keeps the long option because -c doesn't support negatives.
- Enables running/enabled even with --no-scale
- And fixes some other problems in the no-scale output.

But the static variables are the limitations to be extended to support

update_runtime_stat() to update the stats. It will not directly update
