perf tools: Allow multiple threads or processes in record, stat, top

Allow a user to collect events for multiple threads or processes
using a comma separated list.

e.g., collect data on a VM and its vhost thread:
  perf top -p 21483,21485
  perf stat -p 21483,21485 -ddd
  perf record -p 21483,21485

or monitoring vcpu threads
  perf top -t 21488,21489
  perf stat -t 21488,21489 -ddd
  perf record -t 21488,21489
