perf tools: Fix counter sample frequency breakage
Commit 42e59d7d19dc4b4 switched to a default sample frequency of 1KHz, which overrides any user supplied count, causing sched, top and timechart to miss events due to their discrete events being flagged PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD. Override default sample frequency when the user profides a period count, and make both record and top honor that user supplied option.
