The dynamic entry is created for each field in a tracepoint event.
Since they have no fixed hpp format index, it should skip when
perf_hpp__reset_width() is called.
This caused following assertion failure..
$ perf record -e sched:sched_switch -a sleep 1
$ perf report -s comm,next_pid --stdio
perf: ui/hist.c:651: perf_hpp__reset_width:
Assertion `!(fmt->idx >= PERF_HPP__MAX_INDEX)' failed.

We were doing column alignment in the format function for each cell,
returning a string padded with spaces so that when the next column is
printed the cursor is at its column alignment.
This ends up needlessly printing trailing spaces, do it at the format
iterator, that is where we know if it is needed, i.e. if there is more
columns to be printed.
This eliminates the need for triming lines when doing a dump using 'P'
in the TUI browser and also produces far saner results with things like
piping 'perf report' to 'less'.
Right now only the formatters for sym->name and the 'locked' column
(perf mem report), that are the ones that end up at the end of lines
in the default 'perf report', 'perf top' and 'perf mem report' tools,
the others will be done in a subsequent patch.
In the end the 'width' parameter for the formatters now mean, in
'printf' terms, the 'precision', where before it was the field 'width'.

When there's only a single callchain, perf doesn't print its percentage
in front of the symbols. This is because it assumes that the percentage
is same as parents. But if a percent limit is applied, it's possible
that there are actually a couple of child nodes but only one of them is
shown. In this case it should display the percent to prevent
misunderstanding of its percentage is same as the parent's.
For example, let's see the following callchain.
$ perf report --no-children --percent-limit 0.01 --tui
...
- 0.06% sleep [kernel.vmlinux] [k] kmem_cache_alloc_trace
kmem_cache_alloc_trace
- perf_event_mmap
- 0.04% mmap_region
do_mmap_pgoff
- vm_mmap_pgoff
+ 0.02% sys_mmap_pgoff
+ 0.02% vm_mmap
+ 0.02% mprotect_fixup
Current code omits the percent if 'mmap_region' becomes the only node
when percent limit is set to 0.03%, its percent is not 0.06% but users
will assume it incorrectly.
Before:
$ perf report --no-children --percent-limit 0.03 --tui
...
0.06% sleep [kernel.vmlinux] [k] kmem_cache_alloc_trace
kmem_cache_alloc_trace
- perf_event_mmap

Boris reported that 'perf top' is unusable on his default 'black on
white' terminal, which uses (eye friendly) light-grey as a background
color.
The reason is that the TUI cursor for the current selection line uses
HE_COLORSET_SELECTED, and that has a default background color of
'lightgrey' - which is a common terminal background choice and thus
the colors conflict.
Use yellow as the background color instead: that should be an uncommon
terminal background, yet it's still ergonomic on both black and
white/grey terminals.
[ It would be a better solution to straight out detect color
collisions and resolve them reasonably by converting them to RGB and
calculating color space distances, but I was unable to find
proper documentation for SLtt_get_color_object() to recover the
current color scheme so I gave up ... Yellow works well enough. ]

If feed perf a symbol filter in cmdline and the result is empty,
pressing 'Enter' in the hist browser causes crash:
# ./perf report perf.data <-- Common mistake for beginners
Then press 'Enter':
perf: Segmentation fault

This is because 'perf.data' is interpreted as a symbol filter, and the
result is empty, so selection is empty. However,
hist_browser__toggle_fold() forgets to check it.
This patch simply return false when selection is NULL.

With the following steps:
Step 1: perf report
Step 2: Use UP/DOWN to select an entry, don't press 'ENTER'
Step 3: Use '/' to filter symbols, use a filter which returns
empty result
Step 4: Press 'ENTER'
We see that, even if we have filtered all the symbols (and the main
interface is empty), pressing 'ENTER' still selects one symbol. This
behavior surprises the user.
This patch resets browser->{he_,}selection in hist_browser__refresh()
and lets it choose default selection. In this case
browser->{he_,}selection keeps NULL so user won't see annotation item in
menu.

Before this patch we can trigger a segfault by following steps:
Step 0: Use 'perf record' to generate a perf.data without callchain
Step 1: perf report
Step 2: Use UP/DOWN to select an entry, don't press 'ENTER'
Step 3: Use '/' to filter symbols, use a filter which returns
empty result
Step 4: Press 'ENTER' (notice here that the old selection is still
there. This is another problem)
Step 5: Press 'ENTER' to annotate that symbol
Step 6: Press 'LEFT' to go out.
Result: segfault:
perf: Segmentation fault

This is because in this case 'nd' could be NULL in
ui_browser__hists_seek(), but that function never checks it.
This patch adds checker for potential NULL pointer in that function.
After this patch the above steps won't segfault.

When perf report on TUI was called with -S symbol filter, it should
update nr entries even if min_pcnt is 0. IIRC the reason was to update
nr entries after applying minimum percent threshold. But if symbol
filter was given on command line (with -S option), it should use
hists->nr_non_filtered_entries instead of hists->nr_entries.
So this patch fixes a bug of navigating hists browser that the cursor
goes beyond the number of entries when -S (or similar) option is used.
