perf script: Add 'cgroup' field for output
There's no field for the cgroup, let's add one. To do that, users need to
specify --all-cgroup option for perf record to capture the cgroup info.
$ perf record --all-cgroups -- true
$ perf script -F comm,pid,cgroup
true 337112 /user.slice/user-657345.slice/user@657345.service/...
true 337112 /user.slice/user-657345.slice/user@657345.service/...
true 337112 /user.slice/user-657345.slice/user@657345.service/...
true 337112 /user.slice/user-657345.slice/user@657345.service/...
If it's recorded without the --all-cgroups, it'd complain.
$ perf script -F comm,pid,cgroup
Samples for 'cycles:u' event do not have CGROUP attribute set. Cannot print 'cgroup' field.
Hint: run 'perf record --all-cgroups ...'
