perf evlist: Warn when 'sleep' workload is used without system-wide (-a) option
A common mistake when trying to record system-wide profiles for a given
duration is running commands like 'perf record sleep 1' or 'perf stat
sleep 1' without passing '-a' / '--all-cpus'. When '-a' is omitted, perf
defaults to per-process monitoring of the sleep process itself, which
does not collect system-wide activity and records very few events.
Add a warning in evlist__prepare_workload() when the workload executable
is 'sleep' and system-wide mode is not enabled.
