Right, when testing the top TUI I keep trying to use the same menu we
have on the report, to filter by DSO or thread (the Zoom/Unzoom
operations in report TUI).

So eventually I want to get that struct sym_entry used by top merged
with hist_entry, used by report, in an efficient fashion, so that we can
merge all these interfaces.

Live callgraphs if one presses enter on a annotate line seems like a
nice thing to have, indeed, exactly as we have statically in the perf
report TUI :)

Yeah, and all the work done to have it working on a TUI paves the way
for a GUI, but I want to have the TUI streamlined first, so that the GUI
becomes just a boilerplatish matter :-)
