perf archive: Add new option '--unpack' to expand tarballs
Archives generated by the command 'perf archive' have to be unpacked manually. Following the addition of option '--all' now there also exist a nested structure of tars, and after further discussion with Red Hat Global Support Services, they found a feature correctly unpacking archives of 'perf archive' convenient. Option '--unpack' of 'perf archive' unpacks archives generated by the command 'perf archive' as well as archives generated when used with option '--all'. The 'perf.data' file is placed in the current directory, while debug symbols are unpacked in '~/.debug' directory. A tar filename can be passed as an argument, and if not provided the command tries to find a viable perf.tar file for unpacking.
