perf stat: Add per processor socket count aggregation

This patch adds per-processor socket count aggregation for system-wide
mode measurements. This is a useful mode to detect imbalance between
sockets.

To enable this mode, use --aggr-socket in addition
to -a. (system-wide).

The output includes the socket number and the number of online
processors on that socket. This is useful to gauge the amount of
aggregation.

 # ./perf stat -I 1000 -a --aggr-socket -e cycles sleep 2
 #           time socket cpus             counts events
      1.000097680 S0        4          5,788,785 cycles

      2.001167808 S0        4            818,275 cycles
