perf script: Print sample flags more nicely
The flags field is synthesized and may have a value when Instruction
Trace decoding. The flags are "bcrosyiABEx" which stand for branch,
call, return, conditional, system, asynchronous, interrupt, transaction
abort, trace begin, trace end, and in transaction, respectively.
Change the display so that known combinations of flags are printed more
nicely e.g.: "call" for "bc", "return" for "br", "jcc" for "bo", "jmp"
for "b", "int" for "bci", "iret" for "bri", "syscall" for "bcs",
"sysret" for "brs", "async" for "by", "hw int" for "bcyi", "tx abrt" for
"bA", "tr strt" for "bB", "tr end" for "bE".
However the "x" flag will be displayed separately in those cases e.g.
"jcc (x)" for a condition branch within a transaction.
Example:
perf record -e intel_pt//u ls
perf script --ns -F comm,cpu,pid,tid,time,ip,addr,sym,dso,symoff,flags
