Show the branch speculation info if provided by the branch recording
hardware feature. This can be useful for optimizing code further.

The speculation info is appended to the end of the list of fields so any
existing tools that use "/" as a delimiter for access fields via an index
remain unaffected. Also show "-" instead of "N/A" when speculation info
is unavailable because "/" is used as the field separator.

E.g.

  $ perf record -j any,u,save_type ./test_branch
  $ perf script --fields brstacksym

Before:

  [...]
  check_match+0x60/strcmp+0x0/P/-/-/0/CALL
  do_lookup_x+0x3c5/check_match+0x0/P/-/-/0/CALL
  [...]

After:

  [...]
  check_match+0x60/strcmp+0x0/P/-/-/0/CALL/NON_SPEC_CORRECT_PATH
  do_lookup_x+0x3c5/check_match+0x0/P/-/-/0/CALL/NON_SPEC_CORRECT_PATH
  [...]
