perf evsel: Support printing callchains with arrows

The EVSEL__PRINT_CALLCHAIN_ARROW options can be used to print callchains
with arrows for readability.  It will be used 'sched timehist' command
like below:

    __schedule <- schedule <- schedule_timeout <- rcu_gp_kthread <- kthread <- ret_from_fork
    __schedule <- schedule <- schedule_timeout <- rcu_gp_kthread <- kthread <- ret_from_fork
    __schedule <- schedule <- worker_thread <- kthread <- ret_from_fork
