Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo ee29be625b perf tools: Save some loops using perf_evlist__id2evsel
Since we already ask for PERF_SAMPLE_ID and use it to quickly find the
associated evsel, add handler func + data to struct perf_evsel to avoid
using chains of if(strcmp(event_name)) and also to avoid all the linear
list searches via trace_event_find.

To demonstrate the technique convert 'perf sched' to it:

 # perf sched record sleep 5m

And then:
