perf stat: Ignore error thread when enabling system-wide --per-thread

If we execute 'perf stat --per-thread' with non-root account (even set
kernel.perf_event_paranoid = -1 yet), it reports the error:

  jinyao@skl:~$ perf stat --per-thread
  Error:
  You may not have permission to collect system-wide stats.

  Consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid,
  which controls use of the performance events system by
  unprivileged users (without CAP_SYS_ADMIN).

  The current value is 2:

    -1: Allow use of (almost) all events by all users
        Ignore mlock limit after perf_event_mlock_kb without CAP_IPC_LOCK
  >= 0: Disallow ftrace function tracepoint by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
        Disallow raw tracepoint access by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
  >= 1: Disallow CPU event access by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
  >= 2: Disallow kernel profiling by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN

  To make this setting permanent, edit /etc/sysctl.conf too, e.g.:

          kernel.perf_event_paranoid = -1

Perhaps the ptrace rule doesn't allow to trace some processes. But anyway
the global --per-thread mode had better ignore such errors and continue
working on other threads.

This patch will record the index of error thread in perf_evsel__open()
and remove this thread before retrying.

For example (run with non-root, kernel.perf_event_paranoid isn't set):

  jinyao@skl:~$ perf stat --per-thread
  ^C
