Currently, the instructions of samples are shown as raw hex strings
which are hard to read. x86 has a special option '--xed' to disassemble
the hex string via intel XED.
Here we use capstone as our disassembly engine to do that. We select
libcapstone because capstone can provide more insn details.
The improvements compared to xed:
* support arm, arm64, x86-32, x86_64 (more could be supported),
xed only for x86_64.
* immediate address operands are shown as symbol+offs.

Now perf can show assembly instructions with libcapstone for both x86 and
Arm. So the old '--xed' option should not be used.
