Subject: [PATCH 09/17] perf report: Support data type profiling

Enable type annotation when the 'type' sort key is used.
It shows type of variables the samples access at the moment.
Users can see which types are accessed frequently.

  $ perf report -s dso,type --stdio
  ...
  # Overhead  Shared Object      Data Type
  # ........  .................  .........
  #
      35.47%  [kernel.kallsyms]  (unknown)
       1.62%  [kernel.kallsyms]  struct sched_entry
       1.23%  [kernel.kallsyms]  struct cfs_rq
       0.83%  [kernel.kallsyms]  struct task_struct
       0.34%  [kernel.kallsyms]  struct list_head
       0.30%  [kernel.kallsyms]  struct mem_cgroup
