A single q option decodes ip from only FUP/TIP packets. Make it so that
repeating the q option (i.e. qq) decodes only PSB+, getting ip if there
is a FUP packet within PSB+ (i.e. between PSB and PSBEND).
Example:
$ perf record -e intel_pt//u grep -rI pudding drivers
[ perf record: Woken up 52 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 57.870 MB perf.data ]
$ time perf script --itrace=bi | wc -l

Use the new itrace 'q' option to add support for a mode of decoding that
ignores TNT, does not walk object code, but gets the ip from FUP and TIP
packets.
Example:
$ perf record -e intel_pt//u grep -rI pudding drivers
[ perf record: Woken up 52 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 57.870 MB perf.data ]

Change the debug logging (when used with the --time option) to time
filter logged perf events, but allow that to be overridden by using
"d+a" instead of plain "d".
That can reduce the size of the log file.

The "d" option may be followed by flags which affect what debug messages
will or will not be logged. Each flag must be preceded by either '+' or
'-'. The flags support by Intel PT are:
-a Suppress logging of perf events
Suppressing perf events is useful for decreasing the size of the log.

The itrace "e" option may be followed by flags which affect what errors
will or will not be reported. Each flag must be preceded by either '+' or '-'.
The flags supported by Intel PT are:
-o Suppress overflow errors
-l Suppress trace data lost errors
For example, for errors but not overflow or data lost errors:
--itrace=e-o-l
Suppressing those errors can be useful for testing and debugging because
they are not due to decoding.
