Subject: [PATCH RESEND] perf diff: Introduce the new rules of colored printing of delta.

As you know, there are the common colored printing of percents so overhead(%) can be colored with the rule.
But Delta means difference percents from percents of overhead between two files e.g. perf.data and perf.data.old.
Although the rule is for overhead(%), Delta value also follow the same rule.

So, I think that it would be better to use the new colored rule for the Delta as below.

Increament: background colored in red (e.g. +0.50%)
Decrement: colored in blue (e.g. -5.50%)
Same: default color (e.g. +0.00%)

Instead of percent_color_snprintf() function, use new delta_color_snprintf() function.
