Subject: [PATCH] perf stat: add branch performance counters to default

not sure, whether there is any reason, why the branch performance
counters are not enabled by default.
personally, i would find it quite useful, though

--

this patch adds performance counter information about branches and
branch misses to the default output of perf stat.
