So, when doing the docs install it expects files starting with perf-*
will be fed to asciidoc to generate man pages, etc, so the quick fix
here is to rename perf-file-format.txt to perf.data-file-format.txt,
which I did, so this will go in the next pull request.

Volunteers accepted to turn this into asciidoc format so that we can do
a man perf-data-file-format or somesuch.
