Added perfbd.py and block device performance sampling in bench-runner

Based loosely on Linux's perf tool, perfbd.py uses trace output with
backtraces to aggregate and show the block device usage of all functions
in a program, propagating block devices operation cost up the backtrace
for each operation.

This combined with --trace-period and --trace-freq for
sampling/filtering trace events allow the bench-runner to very
efficiently record the general cost of block device operations with very
little overhead.

Adopted this as the default side-effect of make bench, replacing
cycle-based performance measurements which are less important for
littlefs.
