Show the branch type statistics at the end of perf report --stdio.

For example:
perf report --stdio

 JCC forward:  27.6%
JCC backward:  10.0%
    CROSS_4K:   0.0%
    CROSS_2M:  14.3%
         JCC:  37.6%
         JMP:   0.0%
     IND_JMP:   6.5%
        CALL:  26.6%
    IND_CALL:   0.0%
         RET:  29.3%

The branch types are:
---------------------
 JCC forward: Conditional forward jump
JCC backward: Conditional backward jump
         JMP: Jump imm
     IND_JMP: Jump reg/mem
        CALL: Call imm
    IND_CALL: Call reg/mem
         RET: Ret
     SYSCALL: Syscall
      SYSRET: Syscall return
         IRQ: HW interrupt/trap/fault
         INT: SW interrupt
        IRET: Return from interrupt
  FAR_BRANCH: Others not generic branch type

CROSS_4K and CROSS_2M:
----------------------
They are the metrics checking for branches cross 4K or 2MB pages.
It's an approximate computing. We don't know if the area is 4K or
2MB, so always compute both.

To make the output simple, if a branch crosses 2M area, CROSS_4K
will not be incremented.

Change log
----------

v6: Remove branch_type_stat_display() since it's moved to branch.c.

v5: Remove the unnecessary sort__mode checking in
    hist_iter__branch_callback().

v4: Comparing to previous version, the major changes are:

Add the computing of JCC forward/JCC backward and cross page checking
by using the from and to addresses.
