[PATCH] perf tools: Correct typing errors about '-' or '_' in config variable.

Show all headers | View raw

To improve perf config usability, we should probably also recognize
underscores in perf config entries, i.e. the following variants
should both work: as suggested by Ingo Molnar

        print_percent = 1
        print-percent = 1

So, add functionality for it.
'annotate' section has variables that contain '_' underscores like:

        hide_src_code
        use_offset
        jump_arrows
        show_nr_jumps

However other sections has variables that contain a '-' dash
or neither it or underscore i.e.

        ui.show-headers
        call-graph.print-limit
        tui.report

So, convert the characters if typing errors about underscores
or a dash when parsing the config file.
