Enable perf mem to use perf.data when it is not owned by current user or
root.

Example:

 # perf mem -t load record ls
 # chown Yunlong.Song:Yunlong.Song perf.data
 # ls -al perf.data
 -rw------- 1 Yunlong.Song Yunlong.Song 16392 Apr  2 14:34 perf.data
 # id
 uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root),64(pkcs11)

Before this patch:

 # perf mem -D report
 File perf.data not owned by current user or root (use -f to override)
 # perf mem -D -f report
   Error: unknown switch `f'

  usage: perf mem [<options>] {record|report}

     -t, --type <type>     memory operations(load,store) Default load,store
     -D, --dump-raw-samples
                           dump raw samples in ASCII
     -U, --hide-unresolved
                           Only display entries resolved to a symbol
     -i, --input <file>    input file name
     -C, --cpu <cpu>       list of cpus to profile
     -x, --field-separator <separator>
                           separator for columns, no spaces will be added
                           between columns '.' is reserved.

As shown above, the -f option does not work at all.

After this patch:

 # perf mem -D report
 File perf.data not owned by current user or root (use -f to override)
 # perf mem -D -f report
 # PID, TID, IP, ADDR, LOCAL WEIGHT, DSRC, SYMBOL

As shown above, the -f option really works now.
