perf tools: Release thread resources on PERF_RECORD_EXIT
For long running sessions with many threads with short lifetimes the
amount of memory that the buildid process takes is too much.
Since we don't have hist_entries that may be pointing to them, we can
just release the resources associated with each thread when the exit
(PERF_RECORD_EXIT) event is received.
For normal processing we need to annotate maps with hits, and thus
hist_entries pointing to it and drop the ones that had none. Will be
done in a followup patch.
