perf script: Fix --reltime with --time

From: Andi Kleen <[email protected]>

My earlier patch to just enable --reltime with --time was a little too optimistic. The --time parsing would accept absolute time, which is very confusing to the user.

Support relative time in --time parsing too. This only works with recent perf record that records the first sample time. Otherwise we error out.

Fixes 3714437d3fcc ("perf script: Allow --time with --reltime")
