perf report: Show call graph from reference events 

Introduce --show-ref-call-graph for perf report to print reference
callgraph for no callgraph event.

Here is an example.

 perf report --show-ref-call-graph --stdio

 # To display the perf.data header info, please use
 --header/--header-only options.

--full-source-path::
Show the full path for source files for srcline output.
--show-ref-call-graph::
When multiple events are sampled, it may not be needed to collect
callgraphs for all of them. The sample sites are usually nearby,
and it's enough to collect the callgraphs on a reference event.
So user can use "call-graph=no" event modifier to disable callgraph
for other events to reduce the overhead.
However, perf report cannot show callgraphs for the event which
disable the callgraph.
This option extends the perf report to show reference callgraphs,
which collected by reference event, in no callgraph event.
