perf script: Flush output stream after events in verbose mode
When the perf script output is written to a terminal stream, the normal
output of `perf script` would get buffered, but its debug output would
be written directly. This made it quite hard to figure out where a given
debug output is coming from.
We can improve on this by flushing the output buffer after processing an
event. To see the value, compare the following output for a `perf script
-v` run:
Before this patch:
```

unwind: reg 6, val 0
unwind: _start:ip = 0x7faf7dfdc000 (0x2000)

```
This new output format makes it much easier to use perf script output
for debugging purposes, e.g. to investigate broken dwarf unwinding.
