perf trace: Support callchains for --event too

We already were able to ask for callchains for a specific event:

  # trace -e nanosleep --call dwarf --event sched:sched_switch/call-graph=fp/ usleep 1

This would enable tracing just the "nanosleep" syscall, with callchains
at syscall exit and would ask the kernel for frame pointer callchains to
be enabled for the "sched:sched_switch" tracepoint event, its just that
we were not resolving the callchain and printing it in 'perf trace', do
it:

  # trace -e nanosleep --call dwarf --event sched:sched_switch/call-graph=fp/ usleep 1
     0.425 ( 0.013 ms): usleep/6718 nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7ffcc1d16e20) ...
     0.425 (         ): sched:sched_switch:usleep:6718 [120] S ==> swapper/2:0 [120])

Pretty compact, huh? DWARF callchains for raw_syscalls:sys_exit + frame
pointer callchains for a tracepoint, if your hardware supports LBR, go
wild with /call-graph=lbr/, guess the next step is to lift this from
'perf script':

  -F, --fields <str>    comma separated output fields prepend with 'type:'. Valid types: hw,sw,trace,raw.
                        Fields: comm,tid,pid,time,cpu,event,trace,ip,sym,dso,addr,symoff,period,iregs,brstack,brstacksym,flags
