perf record --off-cpu: Dump the remaining PERF_SAMPLE_ in sample_type from BPF's stack trace map

Dump the remaining PERF_SAMPLE_ data, as if it is dumping a direct
sample.

Put the stack trace, tid, off-cpu time and cgroup id into the raw_data
section, just like a direct off-cpu sample coming from BPF's
bpf_perf_event_output().

This ensures that evsel__parse_sample() correctly parses both direct
samples and accumulated samples.
