[PATCH 2/5] perf report: Show message for percent limit on stdio

[Namhyung Kim]

When the hierarchy mode is used, some entries might be omiited due to a
percent limit or filter.  In this case the output hierarchy is different
than other entries.  Add an informative message to users about this.

For example, when 4% of percent limit is applied:

Before:
  #       Overhead  Command / Shared Object / Symbol
  # ..............  ..........................................
  #
      49.09%        swapper
         48.67%        [kernel.vmlinux]
            34.42%        [k] intel_idle
      11.51%        firefox
          8.87%        libpthread-2.22.so
             6.60%        [.] __GI___libc_recvmsg
      10.49%        gnome-shell
          4.74%        libc-2.22.so
      10.08%        Xorg
          6.11%        libc-2.22.so
             5.27%        [.] __memcpy_sse2_unaligned
       6.15%        perf

Note that, gnome-shell/libc has no symbols and perf has no dso/symbols.
With that patch the output will look like below:

After:

  #       Overhead  Command / Shared Object / Symbol
  # ..............  ..........................................
  #
      49.09%        swapper
         48.67%        [kernel.vmlinux]
            34.42%        [k] intel_idle
      11.51%        firefox
          8.87%        libpthread-2.22.so
             6.60%        [.] __GI___libc_recvmsg
      10.49%        gnome-shell
          4.74%        libc-2.22.so
                          no entry >= 4.00%
      10.08%        Xorg
          6.11%        libc-2.22.so
             5.27%        [.] __memcpy_sse2_unaligned
       6.15%        perf
                       no entry >= 4.00%
