perf script: Add script print support for namespace events

Introduce a new option to display events of type PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES
and update perf-script documentation accordingly.

Shown below is output (trimmed) of perf script command with the newly
introduced option, on perf.data generated with perf record command using
--namespaces option.

  $ perf script --show-namespace-events
      swapper   0 [000]     0.000000: PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES 1/1 - nr_namespaces: 7

      swapper   0 [000]     0.000000: PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES 2/2 - nr_namespaces: 7

Commiter notes:

Testing it:

Investigating that double PERF_RECORD_NAMESPACES for the 19155
pid/tid... Its more than that, there are two PERF_RECORD_COMM as well,
and with zeroed timestamps, so probably a synthesizing artifact...
