perf report: Add srcline_from/to branch sort keys
Add "srcline_from" and "srcline_to" branch sort keys that allow to show
the source lines of a branch.
That makes it much easier to track down where particular branches happen
in the program, for example to examine branch mispredictions, or to
associate it with cycle counts:
% perf record -b -e cycles:p ./tcall
% perf report --sort srcline_from,srcline_to,mispredict
...

14.83% tcall.c:11 tcall.c:5 N

14.04% tcall.c:12 tcall.c:5 N
12.42% tcall.c:17 tcall.c:18 N
12.39% tcall.c:7 tcall.c:13 N
