perf report: Add a simple GTK2-based 'perf report' browser
This patch adds a simple GTK2-based browser to 'perf report' that's
based on the TTY-based browser in builtin-report.c.
To launch "perf report" using the new GTK interface just type:
$ perf report --gtk
The interface is somewhat limited in features at the moment:
- No callgraph support
- No KVM guest profiling support
- No color coding for percentages
- No sorting from the UI
- ..and many, many more!
That said, I think this patch a reasonable start to build future features on.

[ committer note: Added #pragma to make gtk no strict prototype problem go
away as suggested by Colin Walters modulo avoiding push/pop ]
