Subject: [PATCH -tip v4 3/5] perf script: enhance IP and ADDR correlate
 detection for BTS

BTS records branch_from_addr and branch_to_addr in IP and ADDR field in perf_sample.
This patch detects this correlation in perf-script.

# perf script -f ip,addr,dso,sym
3f03e016b0    _start (/lib64/ld-2.14.so) ffffffff814675d2 irq_return ([kernel.kallsyms])
3f03e016b0    _start (/lib64/ld-2.14.so) ffffffff814675d2 irq_return ([kernel.kallsyms])
3f03e04b80 _dl_start (/lib64/ld-2.14.so)       3f03e016b3     _start (/lib64/ld-2.14.so)
