perf record: Add an option to force per-cpu mmaps



By default, when tasks are specified (i.e. -p, -t or -u options)
per-thread mmaps are created.

Add an option to override that and force per-cpu mmaps.

Further comments by peterz:

So this option allows -t/-p/-u to create one buffer per cpu and attach
all the various thread/process/user tasks' their counters to that one
buffer?

As opposed to the current state where each such counter would have its
own buffer.
