Subject: [PATCH] perf sched timehist: Add pre-migration wait time option

pre-migration wait time is the time that a task unnecessarily spends
on the runqueue of a CPU but doesn't get switched-in there. In terms
of tracepoints, it is the time between sched:sched_wakeup and
sched:sched_migrate_task.

Let's say a task woke up on CPU2, then it got migrated to CPU4 and
then it's switched-in to CPU4. So, here pre-migration wait time is
time that it was waiting on runqueue of CPU2 after it is woken up.

The general pattern for pre-migration to occur is:
sched:sched_wakeup
sched:sched_migrate_task
sched:sched_switch
So, this option expects sched_wakeup also to be recorded and fails
if attempted to use the option without sched:sched_wakeup tracepoint.

pre-migrations are generally not useful and it increases migrations.
This metric would be helpful in testing patches mainly related to wakeup
and load-balancer code paths as better wakeup logic would choose an
optimal CPU where task would be switched-in and thereby reducing pre-
migrations.

The sample output(s) when -P or --pre-migrations is used:
=================
           time    cpu  task name                       wait time  sch delay   run time  pre-mig time
