perf lock: Report owner stack in usermode

This patch parses `owner_lock_stat` into a RB tree, enabling ordered
reporting of owner lock statistics with stack traces. It also updates
the documentation for the `-o` option in contention mode, decouples `-o`
from `-t`, and issues a warning to inform users about the new behavior
of `-ov`.

Example output:
  $ sudo ~/linux/tools/perf/perf lock con -abvo -Y mutex-spin -E3 perf bench sched pipe
