perf session: Fix list sort algorithm

Browse source 
The homebrewn sort algorithm fails to sort in time order. One of the problem
spots is that it fails to deal with equal timestamps correctly.

My first gut reaction was to replace the fancy list with an rbtree, but the
performance is 3 times worse.

Rewrite it so it works.
