Subject: [PATCH 1/2] perf script: allow extended console debug output

The script tool isn't using a browser, yet use_browser
wasn't set explicitly to zero. This in turn lead to confusing
output such as:

```
$ perf script -vvv ...
...
overlapping maps in /home/milian/foobar (disable tui for more info)
...
```

Explicitly set use_browser to 0 now, which gives us the extended
debug information now in perf script as expected.
