        perf report: Merge al->filtered with hist_entry->filtered
    
    We stopped dropping samples for things filtered via the --comms, --dsos,
    --symbols, etc, i.e. things marked as filtered in the symbol resolution
    routines (thread__find_addr_map(), perf_event__preprocess_sample(),
    etc).
    
    But then, in:

        perf top/tui: Update nr_entries properly after a filter is applied
    
    We don't take into account entries that were filtered in
    perf_event__preprocess_sample() and friends, which leads to
    inconsistency in the browser seek routines, that expects the number of
    hist_entry->filtered entries to match what it thinks is the number of
    unfiltered, browsable entries.
    
    So, for instance, when we do:
    
      perf top --symbols ___non_existent_symbol___
    
    the hist_browser__nr_entries() routine thinks there are no filters in
    place, uses the hists->nr_entries but all entries are filtered, leading
    to a segfault.
    
    Tested with:
    
       perf top --symbols malloc,free --percentage=relative
    
    Freezing, by pressing 'f', at any time and doing the math on the
    percentages ends up with 100%, ditto for:
    
       perf top --dsos libpthread-2.20.so,libxul.so --percentage=relative
    
    Both were segfaulting, all fixed now.
    
    More work needed to do away with checking if filters are in place, we
    should just use the nr_non_filtered_samples counter, no need to
    conditionally use it or hists.nr_filter, as what the browser does is
    just show unfiltered stuff. An audit of how it is being accounted is
    needed, this is the minimal fix.
