Is perf mandatory for --all-user option
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with `profiler --alluser -d 300 -e cpu -f rtcs_cpu.svg` on the stated Ubuntu and Java versions. Check whether the generated flamegraph contains samples and determine whether Linux perf is required for the `--alluser` option; done means the command produces a non-empty flamegraph or documents the requirement clearly.
