[PATCH v3 1/7] perf config: Introduce default_config_item for default config key-value pairs

[Taeung Song]

When initializing default perf config values,
we currently use values of actual type(int, bool, char *, etc.).

For example,
If there isn't user config value at ~/.perfconfig
for 'annotate.use_offset' config variable,
default value for it is 'true' bool type value in perf like below.

At ui/browsers/annoate.c

static struct annotate_browser_opt {
       bool hide_src_code,
            use_offset,
	    jump_arrows,
	    show_linenr,
	    show_nr_jumps,
	    show_total_period;
} annotate_browser__opts = {
       .use_offset      = true,
       .jump_arrows     = true,
};

By the way, I suggest using 'struct default_config_item' that
have default config key-value pairs and then initializing
default config values with them, in near future.
Because if we do, we can manage default perf config values
at one spot (like util/config.c) with default config arrays
and It can be easy and simple to modify default config values or add new configs.
