perf diff: Print the basic block cycles diff

$ perf record -b ./div
$ perf record -b ./div

Following is the default perf diff output

$ perf diff

# Event 'cycles'
#
# Baseline Delta Abs Shared Object Symbol
# ........ ......... ................ ..................................
#
48.75% +0.33% div [.] main
8.21% -0.20% div [.] compute_flag
19.02% -0.12% libc-2.23.so [.] __random_r
16.17% -0.09% libc-2.23.so [.] __random
2.27% -0.03% div [.] rand@plt
+0.02% [i915] [k] gen8_irq_handler
5.52% +0.02% libc-2.23.so [.] rand

This patch creates a new computation selection 'cycles'.

$ perf diff -c cycles

"[Program Block Range]" indicates the range of program basic block
(start -> end). If we can find the source line it prints the source line
otherwise it prints the symbol+offset instead.

v4:
---
Use source lines or symbol+offset to indicate the basic block. It should
be easier to understand.

v3:
---
Cast 'struct hist_entry' to 'struct block_hist' in hist_entry__block_fprintf.
Use symbol_conf.report_block to check if executing hist_entry__block_fprintf.

v2:
---
Keep standard perf diff format and display the 'Baseline' and
'Shared Object'.

The output is sorted by "Baseline" and the basic blocks in the same
function are sorted by cycles diff.
