Series perf: Support PERF_SAMPLE_READ with inherit_stat |

Commit Message

Ben Gainey Feb. 8, 2024, 1:10 p.m. UTC 
  When PERF_SAMPLE_READ is used will enable inherit_stat when inherit is set.

Provides a fallback path to disable inherit when this feature is not available,
which is inline with the previous behaviour.
