perf offcpu: Check process id for the given workload

Current task filter checks task->pid which is different for each
thread.  But we want to profile all the threads in the process.  So
let's compare process id (or thread-group id: tgid) instead.

Before:
  $ sudo perf record --off-cpu -- perf bench sched messaging -t
  $ sudo perf report --stat | grep -A1 offcpu
  offcpu-time stats:
            SAMPLE events:        2

After:
  $ sudo perf record --off-cpu -- perf bench sched messaging -t
  $ sudo perf report --stat | grep -A1 offcpu
  offcpu-time stats:
            SAMPLE events:      850
