After this patch, 'perf data convert' convert comm events to output
CTF stream.

Result:

 # perf record -a sleep 1
 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
 [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.771 MB perf.data (79 samples) ]

 # perf data convert --to-ctf ./out.ctf
 [ perf data convert: Converted 'perf.data' into CTF data './out.ctf' ]
 [ perf data convert: Converted and wrote 0.004 MB (79 samples) ]

 # babeltrace ./out.ctf/
 [20:59:41.942633169] (+?.?????????) cycles:ppp: { cpu_id = 0 }, { perf_ip = 0xFFFFFFFF81065AF4, perf_tid = 0, perf_pid = 0, perf_period = 1 }

 ...    // only sample event is converted
