Vince Weaver dbc01ecdff perf_event_open.2: Update PERF_IOC_FLAG_GROUP info
It turns out PERF_IOC_FLAG_GROUP was broken from 75f937f24bd9
(in Linux 2.6.31, the initial perf_event release) until
724b6daa1 (Linux 3.4).

I've done some extensive kernel source code digging plus
running tests of various kernels and I hope the info
presented is accurate now.

(Patch edited somewhat by mtk.)

For every PTRACE_O_TRACEfoo option, mention that old-style SIGSTOP
is replaced by PTRACE_EVENT_STOP if PTRACE_SEIZE attach was used.

Mention the same thing again in the description of
PTRACE_EVENT_STOP.

Vince Weaver 8cc8b90de8 perf_event_open.2 Add PERF_IOC_FLAG_GROUP documentation
The perf_event_open() ENABLE/DISABLE/RESET ioctls can take an
argument, PERF_IOC_FLAG_GROUP.  This wasn't documented at all
until about a year ago (despite the support being there from
the beginning) so I missed this when initially writing
the man page.
