perf stat: Improve scaling
The multiplexing scaling in perf stat mysteriously adds 0.5 to the
value. This dates back to the original perf tool. Other scaling code
doesn't use that strange convention. Remove the extra 0.5.
Before:
$ perf stat -e 'cycles,cycles,cycles,cycles,cycles,cycles' grep -rq foo
Performance counter stats for 'grep -rq foo':
6,403,580 cycles (81.62%)
6,404,341 cycles (81.64%)
6,402,983 cycles (81.62%)
6,399,941 cycles (81.63%)
6,399,451 cycles (81.62%)
6,436,105 cycles (91.87%)

After:
$ perf stat -e 'cycles,cycles,cycles,cycles,cycles,cycles' grep -rq foo
Performance counter stats for 'grep -rq foo':

6,401,842 cycles (81.68%)
