In the current implementation, we will know when a task is scheduled out
implicitly.
For instance, from the above example,
** . ** *A0 213864.671055 secs A0 => schbench:104834
*B0 . . A0 213864.671156 secs B0 => schbench:104835
*C0 . . A0 213864.671187 secs C0 => schbench:104836
In CPU0 (first column), the sched-in of C0 in last line indicates that
B0 is scheduled out. Similarly down the line if A0 is scheduled out,
we will know it by some other task being scheduled-in.
I hope this is fine. Let me know if you have any ideas or suggestions.

Yes, that's a good idea. I will implement it in v2. Thank you for taking a look.
