Well, I don't mind where this feature goes into. :)

Actually I first thought to implement this in 'perf report --stat' as
it deals with samples. But then changed my mind to go with 'perf
stat' because it's the command for showing stat result and the sample
processing required for this feature is trivial. Also I tried to
match the output format to normal 'perf stat'.

Thanks,
Namhyung
