[PATCH 5/5] perf python: Support the PERF_RECORD_SWITCH

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx>

To test it check tools/perf/python/twatch.py, after following the
instructions there to enable context_switch, output looks like:

  [root@zoo linux]# tools/perf/python/twatch.py
  cpu: 1, pid: 31463, tid: 31463 { type: context_switch, next_prev_pid: 31463, next_prev_tid: 31463, switch_out: 0 }
  cpu: 2, pid: 31463, tid: 31496 { type: context_switch, next_prev_pid: 31463, next_prev_tid: 31496, switch_out: 0 }

  cpu: 3, pid: 31463, tid: 31527 { type: context_switch, next_prev_pid: 31463, next_prev_tid: 31527, switch_out: 1 }
  cpu: 1, pid: 31463, tid: 31463 { type: context_switch, next_prev_pid: 31463, next_prev_tid: 31463, switch_out: 0 }
