perf ftrace: Add 'latency' subcommand
The perf ftrace latency is to get a histogram of function execution
time. Users should give a function name using -T option.
This is implemented using function_graph tracer with the given
function only. And it parses the output to extract the time.
$ sudo perf ftrace latency -a -T mutex_lock sleep 1

Committer testing:
Latency for the __handle_mm_fault kernel function, system wide for 1
second, see how one can go from the usual 'perf ftrace' output, now the
same as for the 'perf ftrace trace' subcommand, to the new 'perf ftrace
latency' subcommand:
# perf ftrace -T __handle_mm_fault -a sleep 1 | wc -l
709
# perf ftrace -T __handle_mm_fault -a sleep 1 | wc -l
510
# perf ftrace -T __handle_mm_fault -a sleep 1 | head -20
# tracer: function

# entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 0/0 #P:32
