--call-graph::
- Display call chains using type, min percent threshold and order.
- type can be either:
- - flat: single column, linear exposure of call chains.
- - graph: use a graph tree, displaying absolute overhead rates.
- - fractal: like graph, but displays relative rates. Each branch of

- - callee: callee based call graph.
- - caller: inverted caller based call graph.
