perf bench: Add -t/--threads option to perf bench mem mmap
So that it can measure overhead of mmap_lock and/or per-VMA lock
contention.
$ perf bench mem mmap -f demand -l 1000 -t 1
# Running 'mem/mmap' benchmark:
# function 'demand' (Demand loaded mmap())
# Copying 1MB bytes ...

$ perf bench mem mmap -f demand -l 1000 -t 2
# Running 'mem/mmap' benchmark:
# function 'demand' (Demand loaded mmap())
# Copying 1MB bytes ...
