[PATCH 2/6] perf tools: Force sample_type for slave events

[Jiri Olsa]

Forcing sample_type setup for slave events in group
leader sessions.

We don't get sample for slave events, we make them
when delivering group leader sample. Set the slave
event to follow the master sample_type to ease up
report.
