Instruction tracing will typically have access to information about the
instruction being executed for a particular ip sample.  Some of that
information will be available in the 'flags' member of struct
perf_sample.

With the addition of transactions events synthesis to Instruction
Tracing options, there is a need to be able easily to see the flags
because they show whether the ip is at the start, commit or abort of a
tranasaction.

Consequently add an option to display the flags.

The flags are "bcrosyiABEx" which stand for branch, call, return,
conditional, system, asynchronous, interrupt, transaction abort, trace
begin, trace end, and in transaction, respectively.

Example using Intel PT:

perf script -fip,time,event,sym,addr,flags
