perf stat: Turn off summary for interval mode by default

There's a risk that outputting interval mode summaries by default breaks
CSV consumers. It already broke pmu-tools/toplev.

So now we turn off the summary by default but we create a new option
'--summary' to enable the summary. This is active even when not using
CSV mode.
