perf tsc: Calculate timestamp with cap_user_time_short
The perf mmap'ed buffer contains the flag 'cap_user_time_short' and two extra fields 'time_cycles' and 'time_mask', perf tool needs to know them for handling the counter wrapping case. This patch is to reads out the relevant parameters from the head of the first mmap'ed page and stores into the structure 'perf_tsc_conversion', if the flag 'cap_user_time_short' has been set, it will firstly calibrate cycle value for timestamp calculation.
