Subject: [PATCH] perf report: show sort_order in title

From: Changbin Du <changbin.du@...el.com>

In the report, how does the data sort is a important info for
analyser. Moreover, perf sometimes insert or append sort fields
automatically. Thus user may confuse how it sorts w/o reading
perf internal. So here print the order info to repor title.
