perf report: Add option to specify time window of interest

Add option to allow user to control analysis window. e.g., collect data
for time window and analyze a segment of interest within that window.

Committer notes:

Testing it:

Using the perf.data file captured via 'perf kmem record':

--header-only::
Show only perf.data header (forces --stdio).
--time::
Only analyze samples within given time window: <start>,<stop>. Times
have the format seconds.microseconds. If start is not given (i.e., time
string is ',x.y') then analysis starts at the beginning of the file. If
stop time is not given (i.e, time string is 'x.y,') then analysis goes
to end of file.
--itrace::
Options for decoding instruction tracing data. The options are:
