Subject: Make perf script easier to use for itrace
Implement a range of improvements to make it easier to look
at itrace traces with perf script. Nothing here couldn't be done
before with some additional scripting, but add simple high
level options to make it easier to use.
% perf record -e intel_pt//k -a sleep 1
