perf hist: Introduce hists class and move lots of methods to it
In cbbc79a5 we introduced support for multiple events by introducing a new "event_stat_id" struct and then made several perf_session methods receive a point to it instead of a pointer to perf_session, and kept the event_stats and hists rb_tree in perf_session. While working on the new newt based browser, I realised that it would be better to introduce a new class, "hists" (short for "histograms"), renaming the "event_stat_id" struct and the perf_session methods that were really "hists" methods, as they manipulate only struct hists members, not touching anything in the other perf_session members. Other optimizations, such as calculating the maximum lenght of a symbol name present in an hists instance will be possible as we add them, avoiding a re-traversal just for finding that information. The rationale for the name "hists" to replace "event_stat_id" is that we may have multiple sets of hists for the same event_stat id, as, for instance, the 'perf diff' tool has, so event stat id is not what characterizes what this struct and the functions that manipulate it do.
