perf top: Support hotkey to change sort order
It would be nice if we can use a hotkey in perf top browser to select a
event for sorting.
For example:
perf top --group -e cycles,instructions,cache-misses
Samples
Overhead Shared Object Symbol

0.04% 0.01% 3.87% perf [.] dso__find_symbol
0.04% 0.04% 1.77% perf [.] sort__dso_cmp
When user press hotkey '2' (event index, starting from 0), it indicates
to sort output by the third event in group (cache-misses).
Samples

4.07% 1.28% 6.68% perf [.] rb_next

1.84% 3.67% 1.68% perf [.] sort__dso_cmp
0.16% 0.00% 1.63% [kernel] [k] clear_page_erms
Now the output is sorted by cache-misses.
v2:
---
Zero the history if hotkey is pressed.
