From: Andi Kleen
Many workloads change over time. perf report currently aggregates
the whole time range reported in perf.data.
This patch adds an option for a time quantum to quantisize the
perf.data over time.
This just adds the option, will be used in follow on patches
for a time sort key.

Move time_quantum to symbol_conf. check for zero time quantum
