The current behavior, which is to use tags[-1] for end_tag, is good
enough in most cases, but sometime it makes more sense to use a
different one as end_tag.
For example, when optimizing APK scanning code in package manager,
using 'boot_progress_pms_scan_end' as end_tag would give us quicker
benchmark iterations as well as more relevant numbers possibly with
a smaller standard deviation.

This CL adds --apk-dir option, which specifies the directory

'sf_stop_bootanim' is useful for tracking the time wasted by
showing the 'outro' part of the boot animation.
'wm_boot_animation_done' is also useful for tracking user
perceived boot time.

perfboot.py repeats the record of each event log during Android
boot specified times. By default, interval between measurements
is adjusted in such a way that CPUs are cooled down sufficiently
to avoid boot time slowdown caused by CPU thermal throttling.
This script also works around the issue of dropbox slowing down
boot time on userdebug build (http://b/20890386) by limiting
the number of files to be created by dropbox.
The result is output in a tab-separated value format.
