Ian Rogers 6fa291f805 perf tools: Expose opt-in --hybrid-merge
Add --hybrid-merge to perf report and perf top. It merges the events a
wildcard expanded to across the core PMUs, and their histograms, so
that a symbol which ran on more than one kind of core is reported once
with the total rather than once per PMU.

evlist__merge_hybrid() links the events and evlist__merge_hists_hybrid()
links the histograms. There is nothing to merge on a machine with a
single core PMU, or when the events didn't come from a wildcard, so
warn in that case rather than quietly producing an unmerged report.

Merging collapses the per-PMU entries into one set, which doesn't
combine with the per-level breakdown of --hierarchy, so asking for both
is an error.
