David Ahern 46690a8051 perf report: Add option to specify time window of interest
Add option to allow user to control analysis window. e.g., collect data
for time window and analyze a segment of interest within that window.

Committer notes:

Testing it:

Using the perf.data file captured via 'perf kmem record':
