Subject: [PATCH v3] perf diff: Report noisy for cycles diff
This patch prints the stddev and hist for the cycles diff of
program block. It can help us to understand if the cycles diff
is noisy or not.
This patch is inspired by Andi Kleen's patch
https://lwn.net/Articles/600471/
We create new option '-n or --noisy'.
Example:
perf record -b ./div
perf record -b ./div
perf diff -c cycles

1. Move the histogram to a separate column
2. Move the svals[] out of struct stats
v2:
---
Jiri got a compile error,
CC builtin-diff.o
builtin-diff.c: In function ‘compute_cycles_diff’:
builtin-diff.c:712:10: error: taking the absolute value of unsigned type ‘u64’ {aka ‘long unsigned int’} has no effect [-Werror=absolute-value]
712 | labs(pair->block_info->cycles_spark[i] -
| ^~~~
Because the result of u64 - u64 is still u64. Now we change the type of
cycles_spark[] to s64.
