perf report: Dump s390 counter set data to file
Add support for the new s390 PMU device cpum_cf_diag to extract the
counter set diagnostic data. This data is available as event raw data
and can be created with this command:

  [root@s35lp76 perf]# ./perf record -R -e '{rbd000,rbc000}' --
                                 ~/mytests/facultaet 2500
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.009 MB perf.data ]
  [root@s35lp76 perf]#

The new event 0xbc000 generated this counter set diagnostic trace data.
The data can be extracted using command:

  [root@s35lp76 perf]# ./perf report --stdio --itrace=d
  #
  # Total Lost Samples: 0
  #
  # Samples: 21  of events 'anon group { rbd000, rbc000 }'
  # Event count (approx.): 21

The files named aux.ctr.## contain the counter set diagnostic data and
the files named aux.smp.## contain the sampling diagnostic data. ##
stand for the CPU number the data was taken from.
