perf timechart: Implement IO mode

Currently, timechart records only scheduler and CPU events (task switches,
running times, CPU power states, etc); this commit adds IO mode which
makes it possible to record IO (disk, network) activity. In this mode
perf timechart will generate SVG with IO charts (writes, reads, tx, rx, polls).

+  on the events in the perf.data file, timechart will contain scheduler/cpu
+  events or IO events.
+
+  In IO mode, every bar has two charts: upper and lower.
+  Upper bar shows incoming events (disk reads, ingress network packets).
+  Lower bar shows outgoing events (disk writes, egress network packets).
+  There are also poll bars which show how much time application spent
+  in poll/epoll/select syscalls.
