Hello,

This is what Brendan requested on the perf-users mailing list [1] to
support FlameGraphs [2] more efficiently.  This patchset adds a few
more callchain options to adjust the output for it.

 * changes in v5)
   - honor field separator from -t option
   - add support for TUI and GTK

 * changes in v4)
   - add missing doc update
     - cleanup/fix callchain value print code
       - add Acked-by from Brendan and Jiri

 * changes in v3)
   - put the value before callchains
     - fix compile error


At first, 'folded' output mode was added.  The folded output puts the
value, a space and all calchain nodes separated by semicolons.  Now it
only supports --stdio as other UI provides some way of folding and/or
expanding callchains dynamically.

The value is now can be one of 'percent', 'period', or 'count'.  The
percent is current default output and the period is the raw number of
sample periods.  The count is the number of samples for each callchain.

The proposed features of hiding hist lines with '-F none' and showing
hist info with callchains can be added as later work.

Here's an example:

  $ perf report --no-children --show-nr-samples --stdio -g folded,count
  ...
    39.93%     80  swapper  [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] intel_idel
  57 intel_idle;cpuidle_enter_state;cpuidle_enter;call_cpuidle;cpu_startup_entry;start_secondary
  23 intel_idle;cpuidle_enter_state;cpuidle_enter;call_cpuidle;cpu_startup_entry;rest_init;...


  $ perf report --no-children --stdio -g percent

               call_cpuidle
