Michael Lentine 21cfc5e103 perf tools: Add cat as fallback pager
This patch adds a fallback to cat for the pager. This is useful
on environments, such as Android, where less does not exist.
It is better to default to cat than to abort.

Avik Sil ea1b3ebac9 perf tools: Fix pager on minimal-install embedded systems
Some Distributions may lack "less" package being included by default,
e.g., Linaro nano rootfs. In those cases use the portable "pager"
command instead of "less".

Ingo Molnar fde953c1c6 perf_counter tools: Remove dead code
Vince Weaver reported that there's a handful of #ifdef __MINGW32__
sections in the code.

Remove them as they are in essence dead code - as unlike upstream
Git, the perf tool is unlikely to be ported to Windows.

Ingo Molnar 864709302a perf_counter tools: Move from Documentation/perf_counter/ to tools/perf/
Several people have suggested that 'perf' has become a full-fledged
tool that should be moved out of Documentation/. Move it to the
(new) tools/ directory.
