perf record: Add ability to sample call branches
This patch add a new branch type sampling filter to perf record. It is named 'call' and maps to PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_CALL. It samples direct call branches only, unlike 'any_call' which includes indirect calls as well. $ perf record -j call -e cycles ..... The man page is updated accordingly.
