New features:

- Dynamicly change verbosity level by pressing 'V' in the 'perf top/report'
  hists TUI browser (Alexis Berlemont)

- Implement 'perf trace --delay' in the same fashion as in 'perf record --delay',
  to skip sampling workload initialization events (Alexis Berlemont)

- Make vendor named events case insensitive in 'perf list', i.e.
  'perf list LONGEST_LAT' works just the same as  'perf list longest_lat' (Andi Kleen)

- Show instruction bytes and lenght in 'perf script' for Intel PT and BTS (Andi Kleen, Adrian Hunter)

   E.g:

    % perf record -e intel_pt// foo
    % perf script --itrace=i0ns -F ip,insn,insnlen
     ffffffff8101232f ilen: 5 insn: 0f 1f 44 00 00

     ffffffff81012336 ilen: 1 insn: c3
     ffffffff810123e3 ilen: 1 insn: 5b
     ffffffff810123e4 ilen: 2 insn: 41 5c
     ffffffff810123e6 ilen: 1 insn: 5d
