[PATCH 12/13] perf report: Show call graph from reference events

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@kernel.org>]

From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com>

Introduce --show-ref-call-graph for perf report to print reference
callgraph for no callgraph event.

Here is an example.

 perf report --show-ref-call-graph --stdio

 # To display the perf.data header info, please use
 --header/--header-only options.
 #
 #
 # Total Lost Samples: 0
 #
 # Samples: 5  of event 'cpu/cpu-cycles,call-graph=fp/'
 # Event count (approx.): 144985
 #
 # Children      Self  Command  Shared Object     Symbol
 # ........  ........  .......  ................  ........................................
 #
    72.30%     0.00%  sleep    [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath
              |
              ---entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath
                 |
                 |--22.62%-- __GI___libc_nanosleep
                  --77.38%-- [...]

+	When multiple events are sampled, it may not be needed to collect
+	callgraphs for all of them. The sample sites are usually nearby,
+	and it's enough to collect the callgraphs on a reference event.
+	So user can use "call-graph=no" event modifier to disable callgraph
+	for other events to reduce the overhead.
+	However, perf report cannot show callgraphs for the event which
+	disable the callgraph.
+	This option extends the perf report to show reference callgraphs,
+	which collected by reference event, in no callgraph event.
