perf tools: Check maximum frequency rate for record/top

Adding the check for maximum allowed frequency rate defined in following
file:

  /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate

When we cross the maximum value we fail and display detailed error
message with advise.

  $ perf record -F 3000 ls
  Maximum frequency rate (2000) reached.
  Please use -F freq option with lower value or consider
  tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate.

In case user does not specify the frequency and the default value cross
the maximum, we display warning and set the frequency value to the
current maximum.

  $ perf record ls
  Lowering default frequency rate to 2000.
  Please consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate.

Same messages are used for 'perf top'.
