Right now ENTER doesn't always exits the newt tree widget, as it is used
for expanding/collapsing branches, but with the new tree widget being
developed we need to regain control to handle it, expanding/collapsing
branches.
In fact its really up to the ui_browser user to state what extra keys
should stop ui_browser__run, and it should handle just the ones needed
for basic browsing.

When I ran "perf kvm ... top", I encountered the following error output.
Error: perfcounter syscall returned with -1 (Too many open files)
Fatal: No CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS=y kernel support configured?
Looking into perf, I found perf opens too many directories at
initialization time, but forgets to close them. Here is the fix.

Gcc generates DW_AT_comp_dir and stores relative source path if building kernel
without O= option. In that case, perf probe --line sometimes doesn't work
without --source option, because it tries to access relative source path.
This adds DW_AT_comp_dir support to perf probe for finding an absolute source
path when no --source option.

Hists that have been filtered, because they don't have callchains
matching the parent filter, won't be printed. As such,
hist_entry__snprintf() returns 0 for them, but we don't control
this value and we always print the buffer, which might be
untouched and then only made of random stack garbage.
Not only does it paint the screen with barf, it also prints
the callchains for these hists, even though they have been filtered,
since the hist has been filtered as well.
We need to check the return value of hist_entry__snprintf() and
ignore the hist if it is 0, which means it didn't get any callchain
matching the parent filter. This fixes the barf and the undesired
callchains.

Hists have their hits increased by the event period. And this
period based counting is the foundation of all the stats in
perf report.
But callchains still use the raw number of hits, without taking
the period into account. So when we compute the percentage,
absolute based percentages are totally broken, and relative ones
too in the first parent level. Because we pass the number of events
muliplied by their period as the total number of hits to the
callchain filtering, while callchains expect this number to be
the number of raw hits.
perf report -g graph was simply not working, showing no graph unless
the min percent was zero. And even there the percentage of the
branches was always 0. And may be fractal filtering was broken on
the first branch level too.
flat also was broken, but it was hidden because of other breakages.
Anyway fix this by counting using periods on callchains.

Initialize the callchain radix tree root correctly.
When we walk through the parents, we must stop after the root, but
since it wasn't well initialized, its parent pointer was random.
Also the number of hits was random because uninitialized, hence it
was part of the callchain while the root doesn't contain anything.
This fixes segfaults and percentages followed by empty callchains
while running:
perf report -g flat

Support string type casting to event argument. If perf-probe finds an argument
casted as string, it ensures the target variable is "(unsigned/signed) char
*(or []). perf-probe also adds dereference if the target is a pointer.
So, both of 'char buf[10];' and 'char *buf;' can be accessed by 'buf:string'

Changes the Perf --version string such that it shows the kernel
version as suggested by Ingo as follows:
That way the perf that comes with v2.6.34 will be:
perf version v2.6.34
while interim versions will have the version of the interim
kernel - for example:
perf version v2.6.35-rc4-70-g39ef13a
This functionality was already in the perf version generator
file except that it was looking for a .git in the perf directory
instead of the kernel directory.

make version 3.80 doesn't support "else ifdef" on the same line, also it
doesn't support unindented nested constructs.
Build fails with:
Makefile:608: Extraneous text after `else' directive
Makefile:611: *** only one `else' per conditional. Stop.
This patch fixes the build for make 3.80.
