perf report: Delay sample_type checks in pipe mode
The pipeline: perf record -a -g -o - sleep 5 |perf inject -v -b | perf report -g -i - generates the warning: Selected -g but no callchain data. Did you call 'perf record' without -g? The problem is that the header data is not written to the pipe, so the sample_type has not been available when perf_report__setup_sample_type is called. For pipe mode, record dumps the sample type as part of the synthesized events stream -- perf_event__synthesize_attrs(). Handle this be detecting pipe mode and not doing early sanity checks on sample_type.
