[Perf] Adding timeout option
From: abhishek agarwal

Hi folks..
I was thinking that why cant we have a timeout option in perf stat
command. The timeout feature will help us to profile a process for a
stipulated time (preferably in millisecs) and make perf stat return
after that time.
Eg:
perf stat --timeout=10 sleep 100
This will make perf return and report stats after 10 ms...
Hope anyone can shed some more light on the idea
Thanks & Regards,
Abhishek Agarwal
