Ravi Bangoria 7384083ba6 perf annotate: Make perf config effective
perf default config set by user in [annotate] section is totally ignored
by annotate code. Fix it.

Before:

  $ ./perf config
  annotate.hide_src_code=true
  annotate.show_nr_jumps=true
  annotate.show_nr_samples=true

  $ ./perf annotate shash
         │    unsigned h = 0;
         │      movl   $0x0,-0xc(%rbp)
         │    while (*s)
         │    ↓ jmp    44
         │    h = 65599 * h + *s++;
   11.33 │24:   mov    -0xc(%rbp),%eax
   43.50 │      imul   $0x1003f,%eax,%ecx
         │      mov    -0x18(%rbp),%rax

After:

         │        movl   $0x0,-0xc(%rbp)
         │      ↓ jmp    44
       1 │1 24:   mov    -0xc(%rbp),%eax
       4 │        imul   $0x1003f,%eax,%ecx
         │        mov    -0x18(%rbp),%rax

Note that we have removed show_nr_samples and show_total_period from
annotation_options because they are not used. Instead of them we use
symbol_conf.show_nr_samples and symbol_conf.show_total_period.

Committer testing:

Using 'perf annotate --stdio2' to use the TUI rendering but emitting the output to stdio:

  # perf config
  #
  # perf config annotate.hide_src_code=true
  # perf config
  annotate.hide_src_code=true
  #
  # perf config annotate.show_nr_jumps=true
  # perf config annotate.show_nr_samples=true
  # perf config
  annotate.hide_src_code=true
  annotate.show_nr_jumps=true
  annotate.show_nr_samples=true
  #

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
