[PATCH RFC v5 08/13] perf evlist: Change perf_evlist__splice_list_tail() ordering

[John Garry]

Function find_evsel_group() expects events to be ordered such that they
are grouped after their leader.

Modify perf_evlist__splice_list_tail() to guarantee this (ordering).

[Should prob also change the function name]
