Subject: [PATCH 2/4] perf tools: Split -G and --call-graph for top command

Splitting -G and --call-graph for record command, so we could
use '-G' with no option.

The '-G' option now takes NO argument and enables the configured
unwind method, which is currently the frame pointers method.

It will be possible to configure unwind method via config
file in upcoming patches.

All current '-G' arguments is overtaken by --call-graph option.

NOTE The documentation for top --call-graph option
     was wrongly copied from report command.
