[PATCH] D16218: [test-suite] Add --param=profile=perf option to lit.

[Kristof Beyls via llvm-commits]

This option will also run each test under perf record, and store the
perf data in the Output directory.

At least on my system, there seems to be a limitation on running many
perf profilers in parallel, so for best results it's probably best to
use lit -j1 in combination with this option.
