perf report: Add "addr_from" and "addr_to" sort dimensions

With the existing symbol_from/symbol_to, branches captured in the same
function would be collapsed into a single function if the latencies
associated with the each branch (cycles) were all the same.  That is the
case on Intel Broadwell, for instance. Since Intel Skylake, the latency
is captured by hardware and therefore is used to disambiguate branches.

Add addr_from/addr_to sort dimensions to sort branches based on their
addresses and not the function there are in. The output is still the
function name but the offset within the function is provided to uniquely
identify each branch.  These new sort dimensions also help with annotate
because they create different entries in the histogram which, in turn,
generates proper branch annotations.

Here is an example using AMD's branch sampling:

  $ perf record -a -b -c 1000037 -e cpu/branch-brs/ test_prg
