perf report: Sort by sampled cycles percent per block for stdio
It would be useful to support sorting for all blocks by the sampled
cycles percent per block. This is useful to concentrate on the globally
hottest blocks.
This patch implements a new option "--total-cycles" which sorts all
blocks by 'Sampled Cycles%'. The 'Sampled Cycles%' is the percent:
percent = block sampled cycles aggregation / total sampled cycles
Note that, this patch only supports "--stdio" mode.
For example,
# perf record -b ./div
# perf report --total-cycles --stdio
# To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.
#
# Total Lost Samples: 0
#
# Samples: 2M of event 'cycles'
# Event count (approx.):
2753248
#
# Sampled Cycles% Sampled Cycles Avg Cycles% Avg Cycles [Program Block Range] Shared Object
# ............... .............. ........... .......... ................................................ .................

Committer testing:
This should provide material for hours of endless joy, both from looking
for suspicious things in the implementation of this patch, such as the
top one:
# Sampled Cycles% Sampled Cycles Avg Cycles% Avg Cycles [Program Block Range] Shared Object
2.17% 1.7M 0.08% 607 [compiler.h:199 -> common.c:221] [kernel.vmlinux]
As well from things that look legit:
# Sampled Cycles% Sampled Cycles Avg Cycles% Avg Cycles [Program Block Range] Shared Object
0.16% 123.0K 0.60% 4.7K [nospec-branch.h:265 -> nospec-branch.h:278] [kernel.vmlinux]

-----------------------------------------------------------
v7:
---
Use use_browser in report__browse_block_hists for supporting
stdio and potential tui mode.
v6:
---
Create report__browse_block_hists in block-info.c (codes are
moved from builtin-report.c). It's called from
perf_evlist__tty_browse_hists.
v5:
---
1. Move all block functions to block-info.c
2. Move the code of setting ms in block hist_entry to
other patch.
v4:
---
1. Use new option '--total-cycles' to replace
'-s total_cycles' in v3.
2. Move block info collection out of block info
printing.
v3:
---
1. Use common function block_info__process_sym to
process the blocks per symbol.
2. Remove the nasty hack for skipping calculation
of column length
3. Some minor cleanup
