[Beignet] [PATCH v2] GetEventProfilingInfo could query all event status.

I think these two patches both need when application GetEventProfilingInfo.

From application view, it is make sense that all event that don't depend on other events should have been flushed and finished when clFinish return.
The problem is the event have finished, but beignet don't update the event's status, so I think it is better to update the event status before exit clFinish.

And GetEventProfilingInfo is another point need to update the event' status. Suppose in the application, don't call clFinish, but maybe event has completed, should not return CL_PROFILING_INFO_NOT_AVAILABLE.
