perf record: Synthesize namespace events for current processes

Synthesize PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES events for processes that were running prior
to invocation of perf record. The data for this is taken from /proc/$PID/ns.
These changes make way for analyzing events with regard to namespaces.

Committer notes:

Check if 'tool' is NULL in perf_event__synthesize_namespaces(), as in the
test__mmap_thread_lookup case, i.e. 'perf test Lookup mmap thread".

Testing it:

# ps axH > /tmp/allthreads
# perf record -a --namespaces usleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.169 MB perf.data (8 samples) ]
# perf report -D | grep PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES | wc -l
602
# wc -l /tmp/allthreads
601 /tmp/allthreads
# tail /tmp/allthreads

Humm, investigate why we got two record for the 19155 pid/tid...
