perf mem/c2c: Set PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT for LOAD_STORE events
Currently perf sets PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT flag only for mem load events. Set it for combined load-store event as well which will enable recording of load latency by default on arch that does not support independent mem load event. Also document missing -W in perf-record man page.
