perf timechart: Add a power-only mode

For doing work on the Linux power management components, I need to
make long (30+ seconds) traces. Currently, this then results in a
HUGE svg file, with mostly process data that isn't interesting.

This patch adds a --power-only mode to perf timechart that only
outputs the CPU power section of the SVG; this significantly
reduces the size of the SVG file, making even 30+ second traces
viewable with inkscape.

As a minor tweak for the same effect, the minimum text size is
decreased; current inkscape cannot zoom in deep enough to show text
this small, but it reduces inkscape compute time.
