perf annotate: Introduce --stdio-color to setup the color output mode selection

'perf annotate --stdio' will colorize entries with most hits and
possibly some other aspects of its output, but those colors gets

colors by adding a new option, --stdio-color, now this use case will
also output escape sequences for colors:

Use '--stdio-color always' to generate color even when redirecting
to a pipe or file. Using just '--stdio-color' is equivalent to
using 'always'.
--tui:: Use the TUI interface. Use of --tui requires a tty, if one is not
