perf/core improvements and fixes:

User visible:
 
 - The default for callchains is back to 'callee' when --children is not used,
   (Namhyung Kim)
 
 - Move the 'use_offset' option to the right place where the annotate code
   expects it to be to be able to properly handle it (Namhyung Kim)
 
 - Don't die when an unknown 'annotate' option is found in the perf config
   file (usually ~/.perfconfig), just warn the user (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
 
 Infrastructure:
 
 - Support %ps/%pS in libtraceevent (Scott Wood)
