perf annotate: Implement hist_entry__get_data_type()



It's the function to find out the type info from the given sample data
and will be called from the hist_entry sort logic when 'type' sort key
is used.

It first calls objdump to disassemble the instructions and figure out
information about memory access at the location.  Maybe we can do it
better by analyzing the instruction directly, but I'll leave it for
later work.

The memory access is determined by checking instruction operands to
have "(" and then extract register name and offset.  It'll return NULL
if no data type is found.
