[Patch v2] perf tests: Add auto counter reload (ACR) sampling test

[Dapeng Mi <dapeng1.mi@linux.intel.com>]

Add auto counter reload sampling test to verify that the intended event
records can be captured and the self-reloaded events won't generate any
records.

Signed-off-by: Dapeng Mi <dapeng1.mi@linux.intel.com>
---

V2: 1) add ratio_to_prev option test. 2) Adjust sampling period to
better match the "perf test -w thloop" workload
