  When printing perf_event_attr, always display perf_event_attr type and its symbol
to improve the readability of debugging information.

Before:

  # perf --debug verbose=2 record -e cycles,cpu-clock,sched:sched_switch,branch-load-misses,r101,mem:0x0 -C 0 true

Everything in this file syncs with perf_event.h, so the comment
does not seem very useful.

These 4 lines end up getting used again about 3 times in the next
patch, so might as well be a separate function e.g.

	print_id(buf, size, value, stringify_perf_type_id(value));

where:

static void print_id(char *buf, size_t size, u64 value, const char *str)
{
	if (str == NULL)
		snprintf(buf, size, "%"PRIu64, value);
	else
		snprintf(buf, size, "%"PRIu64" (%s)", value, str);
}

OK, will add print_id() helper in v3.
If print_id() helper is also used to print config id, is printed in the 
decimal format. In the past, it is printed in the hexadecimal format,
there may be some changes here.

Before:
   config                           0x143

After:
   config                           323 (sched:sched_switch)

Right I didn't notice the difference.  Best keep print_id() just for the hex cases.

Emm...,Is the type id also printed in hexadecimal format?

static void print_id(char *buf, size_t size, u64 value, const char *str)
{
	if (str == NULL)
		snprintf(buf, size, "%#"PRIx64, value);
	else
		snprintf(buf, size, "%#"PRIx64" (%s)", value, str);
}

Output:
perf_event_attr:
   type                             0x2 (PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT)
   size                             136
   config                           0x124 (sched:sched_switch)

Because v3 has just been sent out, if need to modify it according to 
this, I'll send v4.


Thanks,
Yang
