perf record: Enable asynchronous trace writing
The trace file offset is read once before mmaps iterating loop and written back after all performance data is enqueued for aio writing. The trace file offset is incremented linearly after every successful aio write operation. record__aio_sync() blocks till completion of the started AIO operation and then proceeds. record__aio_mmap_read_sync() implements a barrier for all incomplete aio write requests.
