perf top: Add --branch-history option

Browse Source 
Add --branch-history option, to act the same as that option does for
perf report.

Example:

  $ cat tcallf.c
  volatile a = 10000, b = 100000, c;

  __attribute__((noinline)) f2()
  {
          c = a / b;
  }

  __attribute__((noinline)) f1()
  {
          f2();
          f2();
  }
  main()
  {
          while (1)
                  f1();
  }
  $ gcc -w -g -o tcallf tcallf.c
  $ ./tcallf &
  [1] 29409
  $ perf top -e cycles:u  -t $(pidof tcallf) --stdio --no-children --branch-history

The various filters must be specified as a comma separated list: --branch-filter any_ret,u,k
Note that this feature may not be available on all processors.
--branch-history::
Add the addresses of sampled taken branches to the callstack.
This allows to examine the path the program took to each sample.
--raw-trace::
When displaying traceevent output, do not use print fmt or plugins.
