Subject: [patch] perf timechart: Add a power-only mode

Subject: perf timechart: Add a power-only mode

For doing work on the Linux power management components,
I need to make long (30+ seconds) traces. Currently,
this then results in a HUGE svg file, with mostly
process data that isn't interesting.

This patch adds a --power-only mode to perf timechart
that only outputs the CPU power section of the SVG;
this significantly reduces the size of the SVG file,
making even 30+ second traces viewable with inkscape.

As a minor tweak for the same effect, the minimum text
size is decreased; current inkscape cannot zoom in
deep enough to show text this small, but it reduces
inkscape compute time.
