perf evsel: Fix order of event list deletion
We need to defer calling perf_evsel_list__delete() till after atexit registered routines, because we need to traverse the events being recorded at that time at least on 'perf record'. This fixes the problem reported by Thomas Renninger where cmd_record called by cmd_timechart would not write the tracing data to the perf.data file header because the evsel_list at atexit (control+C on 'perf timechart record') time would be empty, being already deleted by run_builtin(), and thus 'perf timechart' when trying to process such perf.data file would die with: "no trace data in the file" Problem introduced in 70d544d.
