Subject: [PATCH 08/12] perf tools: Search for more options when passing args to -h

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@...hat.com>

Recently 'perf <tool> -h' was made aware of arguments and would show
just the help for the arguments specified, but that required a strict
form, i.e.:

  $ perf -h --tui

worked, but:

  $ perf -h tui

didn't.

Make it support both cases and also look at the option help when neither
matches, so that he following examples works:

  $ perf report -h interface

   Usage: perf report [<options>]

    --gtk    Use the GTK2 interface
    --stdio  Use the stdio interface
    --tui    Use the TUI interface

  $ perf report -h stack

   Usage: perf report [<options>]

    -g, --call-graph <print_type,threshold[,print_limit],order,
                      sort_key[,branch]>
      Display call graph (stack chain/backtrace):

        print_type:  call graph printing style (graph|flat|fractal|none)
        threshold:   minimum call graph inclusion threshold (<percent>)
        print_limit: maximum number of call graph entry (<number>)
        order:       call graph order (caller|callee)
        sort_key:    call graph sort key (function|address)
        branch:      include last branch info to call graph (branch)

      Default: graph,0.5,caller,function
        --max-stack <n>   Set the maximum stack depth when parsing the
                          callchain, anything beyond the specified depth
                          will be ignored. Default: 127
