perf stat: Don't show counter information when workload fails
When starting a workload 'stat' wasn't using prepare_workload evlist
method's signal based exec() error reporting mechanism.
Use it so that the we don't report 'not counted' counters.
Before:
[acme@zoo linux]$ perf stat dfadsfa
dfadsfa: No such file or directory
Performance counter stats for 'dfadsfa':
<not counted> task-clock
<not counted> context-switches
<not counted> cpu-migrations
<not counted> page-faults
<not counted> cycles
<not counted> stalled-cycles-frontend
<not supported> stalled-cycles-backend
<not counted> instructions
<not counted> branches
<not counted> branch-misses
0.001831462 seconds time elapsed
[acme@zoo linux]$
After:
[acme@zoo linux]$ perf stat dfadsfa
dfadsfa: No such file or directory
[acme@zoo linux]$
