perf_counter: Fix tracepoint sampling to be part of generic sampling

Based on Peter's comments, make tracepoint sampling generic
just like all the other sampling bits are. This is a rename
with no code changes:

- PERF_SAMPLE_TP_RECORD to PERF_SAMPLE_RAW
- struct perf_tracepoint_record to perf_raw_record

We want the system in place that transport tracepoints raw
samples events into the perf ring buffer to be generalized and
usable by any type of counter.
