perf stat: Add stalled cycles to the default output

Browse Source 
The new default output looks like this:

 Performance counter stats for './loop_1b_instructions':

We dropped cache-refs and cache-misses and added stalled-cycles - this is a
more generic "how well utilized is the CPU" metric.

If the stalled-cycles ratio is too high then more specific measurements can be
taken to figure out the source of the inefficiency.
