Kan Liang a054c2989f perf tools: Support data block and addr block
Two new data source fields, to indicate the block reasons of a load
instruction, are introduced on the Intel Sapphire Rapids server. The
fields can be used by the memory profiling.

Add a new sort function, SORT_MEM_BLOCKED, for the two fields.

For the previous platforms or the block reason is unknown, print "N/A"
for the block reason.

Add blocked as a default mem sort key for perf report and perf mem
report.

Committer testing:

So in machines without this capability we get a "N/A" filling the new "Blocked"
column:

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.
