Kan Liang 1f2b7fbb04 perf annotate: Save branch counters for each block
When annotating a basic block, it's useful to display the occurrences
of other events in the block.

The branch counter feature is only available for newer Intel platforms.

So a dedicated option to display the branch counters is not introduced.

Reuse the existing --total-cycles option, which triggers the annotation
of a basic block and displays the cycle-related annotation.

When the branch counters information is available, the branch counters
are automatically appended after all the cycle-related annotation.

Accounting the branch counters as well when accounting the cycles in
hist__account_cycles().

In 'struct annotated_branch', introduce a br_cntr array to save the
accumulation of each branch counter.

In a sample, all the branch counters for a branch are saved in a u64
space.

Because the saturation of a branch counter is small, e.g., for Intel
Sierra Forest, the saturation is only 3.

Add ANNOTATION__BR_CNTR_SATURATED_FLAG to indicate if a branch counter
once saturated. That can be used to indicate a potential event lost
because of the saturation.
