When perf report synthesize events from ARM SPE data, it refers to
current cpu, pid and tid in the machine.  But there's no place to set
them in the ARM SPE decoder.  I'm seeing all pid/tid is set to -1 and
user symbols are not resolved in the output.

Like Intel PT, add context switch records to track task info.  As ARM
SPE support was added later than PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE, I think
we can safely set the attr.context_switch bit and use it.
