Currently, accounting each sample is done in multiple places - once
when adding them to the input tree, other when adding them to the
output tree. It's not only confusing but also can cause a subtle
problem since concurrent processing like in perf top might see the
updated stats before adding entries into the output tree - like seeing
more (blank) lines at the end and/or slight inaccurate percentage.
To fix this, only account the entries when it's moved into the output
tree so that they cannot be seen prematurely. There're some
exceptional cases here and there - they should be addressed separately
with comments.

Add hist.percentage option for setting default value of the
symbol_conf.filter_relative. It affects the output of various perf
commands (like perf report, top and diff) only if filter(s) applied.
An user can write .perfconfig file like below to show absolute
percentage of filtered entries by default:
$ cat ~/.perfconfig
[hist]
percentage = absolute
And it can be changed through command line:
$ perf report --percentage relative

The --percentage option is for controlling overhead percentage
displayed. It can only receive either of "relative" or "absolute".
Move the parser callback function into a common location since it's
used by multiple commands now.
For more information, please see previous commit same thing done to
"perf report".

The --percentage option is for controlling overhead percentage
displayed. It can only receive either of "relative" or "absolute".
"relative" means it's relative to filtered entries only so that the
sum of shown entries will be always 100%. "absolute" means it retains
the original value before and after the filter is applied.
$ perf report -s comm
# Overhead Command
# ........ ............
#
74.19% cc1
7.61% gcc
6.11% as
4.35% sh
4.14% make
1.13% fixdep
...
$ perf report -s comm -c cc1,gcc --percentage absolute
# Overhead Command
# ........ ............
#
74.19% cc1
7.61% gcc
$ perf report -s comm -c cc1,gcc --percentage relative
# Overhead Command
# ........ ............
#
90.69% cc1
9.31% gcc
Note that it has zero effect if no filter was applied.

When filtering by thread, dso or symbol on TUI it also update total
period so that the output shows different result than no filter - the
percentage changed to relative to filtered entries only. Sometimes
this is not desired since users might expect same results with filter.
So new filtered_* fields to hists->stats to count them separately.
They'll be controlled/used by user later.

With programs with very large functions it can be useful to distinguish
the callgraph nodes on more than just function names. So for example if
you have multiple calls to the same function, it ends up being separate
nodes in the chain.
This patch adds a new key field to the callgraph options, that allows
comparing nodes on functions (as today, default) and addresses.
Longer term it would be nice to also handle src lines, but that would
need more changes and address is a reasonable proxy for it today.
I right now reference the global params, as there was no simple way to
register a params pointer.

When -v option is given, the symbol sort key prints its address also but
it wasn't properly aligned since hists__calc_col_len() misses the
additional part. Also it missed 2 spaces for 0x prefix when printing.

The branch info was allocated for the whole stack and passed matching
hist entry for each level during processing samples. Thus when a hist
entry tries to free its branch info like in hists__collapse_insert_entry
it'll face following error.

This patch adds the sorting and histogram support
functions to enable profiling of memory accesses.
The following sorting orders are added:
- symbol_daddr: data address symbol (or raw address)
- dso_daddr: data address shared object
- locked: access uses locked transaction
- tlb : TLB access
- mem : memory level of the access (L1, L2, L3, RAM, ...)
- snoop: access snoop mode

perf record has a new option -W that enables weightened sampling.
Add sorting support in top/report for the average weight per sample and the
total weight sum. This allows to both compare relative cost per event
and the total cost over the measurement period.
Add the necessary glue to perf report, record and the library.
v2: Merge with new hist refactoring.
v3: Fix manpage. Remove value check.
Rename global_weight to weight and weight to local_weight.
v4: Readd sort keys to manpage
v5: Move weight to end
v6: Move weight to template
v7: Rename weight key.
Original patch from Andi modified by Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com>
to include ONLY the weight supporting code and apply to pristine 3.8.0-rc4.

For matching and/or linking hist entries, they need to be sorted by
given sort keys. However current hists__match/link did this on the
output trees, so that the entries in the output tree need to be resort
before doing it.
This looks not so good since we have trees for collecting or collapsing
entries before passing them to an output tree and they're already sorted
by the given sort keys. Since we don't need to print anything at the
time of matching/linking, we can use these internal trees directly
instead of bothering with double resort on the output tree.
Its only user - at the time of this writing - perf diff can be easily
converted to use the internal tree and can save some lines too by
getting rid of unnecessary resorting codes.

That given two hists will find the hist_entries (buckets) in the second
hists that are for the same bucket in the first and link them, then it
will look for all buckets in the second that don't have a counterpart in
the first and will create a dummy counterpart that will then be linked
to the entry in the second.
For multiple events this will be done pairing the leader with all the
other events in the group, so that in the end the leader will have all
the buckets in all the hists in a group, dummy or not while the other
hists will be left untouched.
