Store -k clockid frequency into Perf trace to enable timestamps
derived metrics conversion into wall clock time on reporting stage.
Below is the example of perf report output:
tools/perf/perf record -k raw -- ../../matrix/linux/matrix.gcc
...
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 31.222 MB perf.data (818054 samples) ]
tools/perf/perf report --header
