perf record: Support per-event freq term
Now perf can set per-event value of time and (sampling) period. But I
guess most users like me just want to set frequency rather than period.
So add the 'freq' term in the event parser.

These params can be used to overload default config values per event.
Here is a list of the params.
- 'period': Set event sampling period
+ - 'freq': Set event sampling frequency
- 'time': Disable/enable time stamping. Acceptable values are 1 for
enabling time stamping. 0 for disabling time stamping.
The default is 1.
