Maybe we can consolidate the setting for the global variable
"dwarf_callchain_users" with below change; this can help us to cover
the tools for most cases. I used the below change to replact patch
03, "perf report" and "perf script" both can work well with it.
Please note, if you want to move forward with this way, it's better to
use a saperate patch for firstly refactoring the function
script__setup_sample_type() by using the general API
callchain_param_setup() to replace the duplicate code pieces for
callchain parameter setting up.
After that, you could apply the reset change for adding new parameter
"arch" for the function script__setup_sample_type().
