perf intel-pt: Fix itrace defaults for perf script

Commit 4eb068157121 ("perf script: Make itrace script default to all
calls") does not work because 'use_browser' is being used to determine
whether to default to periodic sampling (i.e. better for perf report).
The result is that nothing but CBR events display for perf script when
no --itrace option is specified.

Fix by using 'default_no_sample' and 'inject' instead.

Example:

 Before:

  $ perf record -e intel_pt/cyc/u ls
  $ perf script > cmp1.txt
  $ perf script --itrace=cepwx > cmp2.txt
  $ diff -sq cmp1.txt cmp2.txt
  Files cmp1.txt and cmp2.txt differ

 After:

  $ perf script > cmp1.txt
  $ perf script --itrace=cepwx > cmp2.txt
  $ diff -sq cmp1.txt cmp2.txt
  Files cmp1.txt and cmp2.txt are identical
