[PATCH v2 2/2] perf stat: Support regex pattern in --for-each-cgroup

[Namhyung Kim]

To make the command line even more compact with cgroups, support regex
pattern matching in cgroup names.

  $ perf stat -a -e cpu-clock,cycles --for-each-cgroup ^foo sleep 1

          3,000.73 msec cpu-clock                 foo #    2.998 CPUs utilized
    12,530,992,699      cycles                    foo #    7.517 GHz                      (100.00%)
          1,000.61 msec cpu-clock                 foo/bar #    1.000 CPUs utilized
     4,178,529,579      cycles                    foo/bar #    2.506 GHz                      (100.00%)
          1,000.03 msec cpu-clock                 foo/baz #    0.999 CPUs utilized
     4,176,104,315      cycles                    foo/baz #    2.505 GHz                      (100.00%)

       1.000892614 seconds time elapsed
