[PATCH 1/5] perf tools: remove stale perf evlist mmap read for backward

[kan . liang]

From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@xxxxxxxxx>

perf_evlist__mmap_read_catchup and perf_evlist__mmap_read_backward are
only for overwrite mode.
But they read the evlist->mmap buffer which is for non-overwrite mode.

It did not bring any serious problem yet, because there is no one use
it.

Remove the unused interfaces.
