perf tools: Only display parent field if explictly sorted

We don't need to display the parent field if the parent
sorting machinery is only used for parent filtering
(as in "-p foo").

However if parent filtering is used in combination with
explicit parent sorting ( -s parent), we want to
display it.

Result with:

  perf report -p kernel_thread -s parent
