perf stat: Make --per-thread update shadow stats to show metrics
We should support this because it would allow easily to collect metrics
for different threads in applications.
Original patch from posted by Jin Yao in here [1].
1. Current output, for example:
root@skl:/tmp# perf stat --per-thread -p 21623
^C
Performance counter stats for process id '21623':
vmstat-21623 0.517479 task-clock (msec) # 0.000 CPUs utilized
vmstat-21623 1 context-switches

root@skl:/tmp# perf stat --per-thread --metrics ipc -p 21623
^C
Performance counter stats for process id '21623':

2. With this patch, the result would be:
