Subject: tools/vm/page_owner_sort.c: add switch between culling by stacktrace and txt

Culling by comparing stacktrace would casue loss of some information.  For
example, if there exists 2 blocks which have the same stacktrace and the
different head info

Page allocated via order 0, mask 0x108c48(...), pid 73696,
 ts 1578829190639010 ns, free_ts 1576583851324450 ns
 prep_new_page+0x80/0xb8
 get_page_from_freelist+0x924/0xee8
 __alloc_pages+0x138/0xc18
 alloc_pages+0x80/0xf0
 __page_cache_alloc+0x90/0xc8

Page allocated via order 0, mask 0x108c48(...), pid 61806,
 ts 1354113726046100 ns, free_ts 1354104926841400 ns
 prep_new_page+0x80/0xb8
 get_page_from_freelist+0x924/0xee8
 __alloc_pages+0x138/0xc18
 alloc_pages+0x80/0xf0
 __page_cache_alloc+0x90/0xc8

After culling, it would be like this

2 times, 2 pages:
Page allocated via order 0, mask 0x108c48(...), pid 73696,
 ts 1578829190639010 ns, free_ts 1576583851324450 ns
 prep_new_page+0x80/0xb8
 get_page_from_freelist+0x924/0xee8
 __alloc_pages+0x138/0xc18
 alloc_pages+0x80/0xf0
 __page_cache_alloc+0x90/0xc8

The info of second block missed.  So, add -c to turn on culling by
stacktrace.  By default, it will cull by txt.
