[PATCH 16/17] perf record: Add --output-dir option to store data in directory

[Jiri Olsa]

Adding --output-dir option to mimic -o and --dir options.
following commands do the same:

  $ perf record -o perf.dir.data --dir ...
  $ perf record --output-dir perf.dir.data ...

User cannot use both -o and output-dir together,
error is displayed.
