perf script: Enable printing of branch stack
This patch improves perf script by enabling printing of the
branch stack via the 'brstack' and 'brstacksym' arguments to
the field selection option -F. The option is off by default
and operates only if the perf.data file has branch stack content.
The branches are printed in to/from pairs. The most recent branch
is printed first. The number of branch entries vary based on the
underlying hardware and filtering used.
The brstack prints FROM/TO addresses in raw hexadecimal format.
The brstacksym prints FROM/TO addresses in symbolic form wherever
possible.
$ perf script -F ip,brstack
5d3000 0x401aa0/0x5d2000/M/-/-/-/0 ...
$ perf script -F ip,brstacksym
4011e0 noploop+0x0/noploop+0x0/P/-/-/0
The notation F/T/M/X/A/C describes the attributes of the branch.
F=from, T=to, M/P=misprediction/prediction, X=TSX, A=TSX abort, C=cycles (SKL)
