perf report has supported the option --group-sort-idx, which
sorts the output by the event at the index n in event group.

For example,
perf record -e cycles,instructions,cache-misses
perf report --group --group-sort-idx 2 --stdio

The perf-report output is sorted by cache-misses.

This patch supports --group-sort-idx in perf-top.

For example,
perf top --group -e cycles,instructions,cache-misses --group-sort-idx 2

The perf-top output is sorted by cache-misses.
