Add a new flag field while opening a tracepoint perf counter:

	-e tracepoint_subsystem:tracepoint_name:flags

This is intended to be generic although for now it only supports the
r[e[c[o[r[d]]]]] flag:

	./perf record -e workqueue:workqueue_insertion:record
	./perf record -e workqueue:workqueue_insertion:r

will have the same effect: enabling the raw samples record for the
given tracepoint counter.

In the future, we may want to support further flags, separated by
commas.
