perf tools: Improve call graph documents and help messages
The --call-graph option is complex so we should provide better guide for
users. Also change help message to be consistent with config option
names. Now perf top will show help like below:
$ perf top --call-graph
Error: option `call-graph' requires a value
Usage: perf top [<options>]
--call-graph <record_mode[,record_size],print_type,threshold[,print_limit],order,sort_key[,branch]>
setup and enables call-graph (stack chain/backtrace):
record_mode: call graph recording mode (fp|dwarf|lbr)
record_size: if record_mode is 'dwarf', max size of stack recording (<bytes>)
default: 8192 (bytes)
print_type: call graph printing style (graph|flat|fractal|none)
threshold: minimum call graph inclusion threshold (<percent>)
print_limit: maximum number of call graph entry (<number>)
order: call graph order (caller|callee)
sort_key: call graph sort key (function|address)
branch: include last branch info to call graph (branch)
Default: fp,graph,0.5,caller,function
