| Subject | [PATCH 28/48] perf record: Disable buildid cache options by default in switch output mode |

Cost of buildid cache processing is high: read all events in output
perf.data, open elf files to read buildid then copy them into
~/.debug directory. In switch output mode, causes perf stop receiving
from perf events for too long.
Enable no-buildid and no-buildid-cache by default if --switch-output
is provided. Still allow user use --no-no-buildid to explicitly enable
buildid in this case.
