perf tools: Propagate perf_config() errors
Previously these were being ignored, sometimes silently.
Stop doing that, emitting debug messages and handling the errors.
Testing it:
$ cat ~/.perfconfig
cat: /home/acme/.perfconfig: No such file or directory
$ perf stat -e cycles usleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'usleep 1':
938,996 cycles:u
0.003813731 seconds time elapsed
$ perf top --stdio
Error:
You may not have permission to collect system-wide stats.
