[PATCH v2 2/6] perf record: Get the first sample time and last sample time

[Jin Yao]

In perf record, it's walked on all samples yet. So it's very easy to get
the first/last samples and save the time to perf file header via the
function write_sample_time().

In later, perf report/script will fetch the time from perf file header.
