perf scripts python: exported-sql-viewer.py: Add Time chart by CPU

Add a time chart based on context switch information.

Context switch information was added to the database export fairly
recently, so the chart menu option will only appear if context switch
information is in the database.

Refer to the Exported SQL Viewer Help option for more information about
the chart.

 The Top calls by elapsed time report displays calls in descending order of time elapsed between when the function was called and when it returned.
 The data is reduced by various selection criteria. A dialog box displays available criteria which are AND'ed together.
 If not all data is fetched, a Fetch bar is provided. Ctrl-F displays a Find bar.
