Also, the patch will also save the trace if running with -a and the
threshold was not violated, which is not what one usually wants, e.g.:

$ rtla osnoise top -c 0 -q -a 10000000 -d 5s

 Saving trace to osnoise_trace.txt

I believe it would be better to add a new option, something like
--force-trace, that would be used to save the trace even if there is
no threshold violation. -t/--trace and -a could then be used with the
same semantics as before.
