Currently report and stat catch SIGINT (and others) without altering
their exit state. This means that things like:
while :; do perf stat ./foo ; done
Loops become hard-to-interrupt, because bash never sees perf terminate
due to interruption. Fix this.

Before:
$ perf stat ~/hackbench 5
error: syscall returned with -1 (No such device)
After:
$ perf stat ~/hackbench 5
Time: 1.640
Performance counter stats for '/home/mingo/hackbench 5':

Wall-clock time elapsed: 1699.999995 msecs
Also add -v (--verbose) option to allow the printing of failed
counter opens.
Plus dont print 'inf' if wall-time is zero (due to jiffies granularity),
instead skip the printing of the CPU utilization factor.

Several people have suggested that 'perf' has become a full-fledged
tool that should be moved out of Documentation/. Move it to the
(new) tools/ directory.
