perf script: Add Python script to export to postgresql

Add a Python script to export to a postgresql database.

The script requires the Python pyside module and the Qt PostgreSQL
driver. The packages needed are probably named "python-pyside" and
"libqt4-sql-psql"

The caller of the script must be able to create postgresql databases.

The script takes the database name as a parameter. The database and
database tables are created. Data is written to flat files which are
then imported using SQL COPY FROM.

Example:

$ perf record ls

$ perf script report export-to-postgresql lsdb

My notes (which may be out-of-date) on setting up postgresql so you can
create databases:

fedora:

$ sudo yum install postgresql postgresql-server python-pyside qt-postgresql
$ sudo su - postgres -c initdb
$ sudo service postgresql start
$ sudo su - postgres
$ createuser -s <your username>

I used the the unix user name in createuser.

If it fails, try createuser without -s and answer the following question
to allow your user to create tables:

Shall the new role be a superuser? (y/n) y

ubuntu:

$ sudo apt-get install postgresql
$ sudo su - postgres
$ createuser <your username>
Shall the new role be a superuser? (y/n) y

You may want to disable automatic startup. One way is to edit
/etc/postgresql/9.3/main/start.conf. Another is to disable the init
script e.g. sudo update-rc.d postgresql disable
