Adrian Hunter ae8b887c00 perf scripts python: exported-sql-viewer.py: Add call tree
Add a new report to display a call tree. The Call Tree report is very
similar to the Context-Sensitive Call Graph, but the data is not
aggregated. Also the 'Count' column, which would be always 1, is replaced
by the 'Call Time'.

Committer testing:

  $ cat simple-retpoline.c
  /*

    https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190109091835.5570-6-adrian.hunter@intel.com

  $ gcc -ggdb3 -Wall -Wextra -O2 -o simple-retpoline simple-retpoline.c
  $ objdump -d simple-retpoline
  */

  __attribute__((noinline)) int bar(void)
  {
          return -1;
  }

  int foo(void)
  {
          return bar() + 1;
  }

  __attribute__((indirect_branch("thunk"))) int main()
  {
          int (*volatile fn)(void) = foo;

          fn();
          return fn();
  }
  $
  $ perf record -o simple-retpoline.perf.data -e intel_pt/cyc/u ./simple-retpoline
  $ perf script -i simple-retpoline.perf.data --itrace=be -s ~acme/libexec/perf-core/scripts/python/export-to-sqlite.py simple-retpoline.db branches calls
  $ python ~acme/libexec/perf-core/scripts/python/exported-sql-viewer.py simple-retpoline.db

And in the GUI select:

    "Reports"
      "Call Tree"

    Call Path                 | Object          | Call Time (ns) | Time (ns) | Time (%) | Branch Count | Brach Count (%) |
