Stephane Eranian 67121f85e4 perf mem: Enable sampling loads and stores simultaneously
This patch modifies perf mem to default to sampling loads and stores
simultaneously. It could only do one or the other before yet there was
no hardware restriction preventing simultaneous collection. With this
patch, one run is sufficient to collect both.

It is still possible to sample only loads or stores by using the
-t option:
 $ perf mem -t load rec
 $ perf mem -t load rep
Or
 $ perf mem -t store rec
 $ perf mem -t store rep

The perf report TUI will show one event at a time. The store output will
contain a Weight column which will be empty.

In V2, we updated the man pages to reflect the change and also simplify
the initialization of the argv vector passed to the cmd_*() functions as
per LKML feedback.

In V3, we fixed typos in the changelog.
