Peter Hutterer 9ac197b540 tools/record: defer file creation until events arrive in autorestart mode
Previously, --autorestart would create a new output file at the start of
each recording cycle. If no events arrived before the timeout, the empty
file was deleted. This created unnecessary filesystem churn during idle
periods.

Instead, wait for device activity before creating the output file so the
only files we create actually have events in them.
