[PATCH v2 14/14] perf diff: Filter out streams by changed functions

[Jin Yao <yao.jin@linux.intel.com>]

Sometime some changes are not reflected in the source code,
e.g. changing the compiler option. So for this, we can't get
the changes by diffing the source code lines.

This patch introduces a new perf-diff option "--changed-func".
It passes the names of changed functions then perf-diff can
know what functions are changed.

For example,
perf diff --stream --changed-func main --changed-func rand

It passes the function list {"main", "rand"} to perf-diff.
Now perf-diff knows the functions "main" and "rand" in new perf
data file are changed.
