Subject: [RESEND PATCH] perf ftrace: Add -O option to set trace option

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

There are some trace options to control what gets printed in the trace
output or manipulate the tracers. This patch add a commandline option
to set it.

Example:
perf ftrace -t function -O noprint-parent --trace-funcs "__kmalloc" -a
            Xorg-1874  [002] ....  4107.182911: __kmalloc
            Xorg-1874  [002] ....  4107.182920: __kmalloc

perf ftrace -t function -O print-parent --trace-funcs "__kmalloc" -a
            Xorg-1874  [000] ....  3924.917243: __kmalloc <-drm_atomic_state_init
            Xorg-1874  [000] ....  3924.917251: __kmalloc <-drm_atomic_state_init
