[PATCHSET 0/5] perf report: Make --stat output more compact

[Namhyung Kim]

Hello,

The perf report --stat shows event statistics like below:

  $ perf report --stat

  Aggregated stats:
             TOTAL events:      20064
              MMAP events:        239
              LOST events:          0
              COMM events:       1518
              EXIT events:          1
          THROTTLE events:          0
        UNTHROTTLE events:          0
              FORK events:       1517
              READ events:          0
            SAMPLE events:       4015
             MMAP2 events:      12769
               AUX events:          0
      ITRACE_START events:          0
      LOST_SAMPLES events:          0
            SWITCH events:          0
   SWITCH_CPU_WIDE events:          0
        NAMESPACES events:          0
           KSYMBOL events:          0
         BPF_EVENT events:          0
            CGROUP events:          0
         TEXT_POKE events:          0
              ATTR events:          0
        EVENT_TYPE events:          0
      TRACING_DATA events:          0
          BUILD_ID events:          0
    FINISHED_ROUND events:          2
          ID_INDEX events:          0
     AUXTRACE_INFO events:          0
          AUXTRACE events:          0
    AUXTRACE_ERROR events:          0
        THREAD_MAP events:          1
           CPU_MAP events:          1
       STAT_CONFIG events:          0
              STAT events:          0
        STAT_ROUND events:          0
      EVENT_UPDATE events:          0
         TIME_CONV events:          1
           FEATURE events:          0
        COMPRESSED events:          0

But it's too long and mostly 0 so we can make it more compact.  Also
perf report -D has similar output at the end with each event's sample
count.  It'd be better if we can have the same output in both case.

So I added --skip-empty (and --no-skip-empty automatically) to suppres
the 0 output and add the event stats like below.

  $ perf report --stat --skip-empty
  
  Aggregated stats:
             TOTAL events:      20064
              MMAP events:        239
              COMM events:       1518
              EXIT events:          1
              FORK events:       1517
            SAMPLE events:       4015
             MMAP2 events:      12769
    FINISHED_ROUND events:          2
        THREAD_MAP events:          1
           CPU_MAP events:          1
         TIME_CONV events:          1
  cycles stats:
            SAMPLE events:       2475
  instructions stats:
            SAMPLE events:       1540


And I make it enabled by default with a new config option
report.skip-empty to change the behavior if needed.

Thanks,
Namhyung
