Adrian Hunter 92a9e4f7db perf tools: Enhance the thread stack to output call/return data
Enhance the thread stack to output detailed information about paired
calls and returns.

The enhanced processing consumes sample information via
thread_stack__process() and outputs information about paired calls /
returns via a call-back.

While the call-back makes it possible for the facility to be used by
arbitrary tools, a subsequent patch will provide the information to
Python scripting via the db-export interface.

An important part of the call/return information is the
call path which provides a structure that defines a context
sensitive call graph.

Note that there are now two ways to use the thread stack.

For simply providing a call stack (like you would get from the perf
record -g option) the interface consists of thread_stack__event() and
thread_stack__sample().

Whereas the enhanced interface consists of call_return_processor__new()
and thread_stack__process().
