perf stat: Print branch misses warning colors

Print the missed-branches percentage with different warning level ASCII colors,
as the percentage passes the 5%/10%/20% thresholds.

These thresholds are set to relatively low levels, because on most CPUs even a
moderate percentage of branch-misses already shows up as a slowdown.
