perf top: Fix annoying fallback message on older kernels
On older (e.g. v4.4) kernels, an annoying fallback message can be
observed in 'perf top':
┌─Warning:──────────────────────┐
│fall back to non-overwrite mode│
│ │
│ │
│Press any key... │
└───────────────────────────────┘
The 'perf top' utility has been changed to overwrite mode since commit
ebebbf082357 ("perf top: Switch default mode to overwrite mode").
For older kernels which don't have overwrite mode support, 'perf top'
will fall back to non-overwrite mode and print out the fallback message
using ui__warning(), which needs user's input to close.
The fallback message is not critical for end users. Turning it to debug
message which is printed when running with -vv.
