perf script: Add option to stop printing callchain
Allow user to specify list of symbols which cause the dump of callchains
to stop at that symbol.
Committer notes:
Testing it:
# perf record -ag usleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.177 MB perf.data (33 samples) ]
#
# # Without it:
#
# perf script
