perf stat: handle Ctrl-C



Before this change, if a long-running perf stat workload was Ctrl-C-ed,
the utility exited without displaying statistics.

After the change, the Ctrl-C gets propagated into the workload (and
causes its early exit there), but perf stat itself will still continue
to run and will display counter results.

This is useful to run open-ended workloads, let them run for
a while, then Ctrl-C them to get the stats.

[ Impact: extend perf stat with new functionality ]
