perf report: Add callchain value option
Now -g/--call-graph option supports how to display callchain values.
Possible values are 'percent', 'period' and 'count'. The percent is
same as before and it's the default behavior. The period displays the
raw period value rather than the percentage. The count displays the
number of occurrences.
