perf bench: Add a multi-threaded synthesize benchmark
By default this isn't run as it reads /proc and may not have access.
For consistency, modify the single threaded benchmark to compute an
average time per event.
Committer testing:
$ grep -m1 "model name" /proc/cpuinfo
model name : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8650U CPU @ 1.90GHz
$ grep "model name" /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l
8
$
$ perf bench internals synthesize -h
# Running 'internals/synthesize' benchmark:
Usage: perf bench internals synthesize <options>
-I, --multi-iterations <n>
Number of iterations used to compute multi-threaded average
-i, --single-iterations <n>
Number of iterations used to compute single-threaded average
-M, --max-threads <n>
Maximum number of threads in multithreaded bench
-m, --min-threads <n>
Minimum number of threads in multithreaded bench
-s, --st Run single threaded benchmark
-t, --mt Run multi-threaded benchmark

$ perf bench internals synthesize -t
