perf dlfilter: Add dlfilter-show-cycles



Add a new dlfilter to show cycles.

Cycle counts are accumulated per CPU (or per thread if CPU is not recorded)
from IPC information, and printed together with the change since the last
print, at the start of each line. Separate counts are kept for branches,
instructions or other events.

Note also, the itrace A option can be useful to provide higher granularity
cycle information.

Example:

  $ perf record -e intel_pt/cyc/u uname
  Linux
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.044 MB perf.data ]
  $ perf script --itrace=A --call-trace --dlfilter dlfilter-show-cycles.so --deltatime | head
         0                   perf-exec  8509 [001]     0.000000000:  psb offs: 0
         0                   perf-exec  8509 [001]     0.000000000:  cbr: 42 freq: 4219 MHz (156%)
