perf hists browser: Dynamically change verbosity level
Here is a small patch which tries to fulfill a point in the perf todo list: * Make pressing 'V' multiple times to go on cycling thru various verbosity levels in 'perf top', so that info that is present in 'perf top -v' can be obtained without having to restart the tool (acme). After a small grep in the code, the max verbosity level seems 3; so, we cycle at 4; I did not dare define a MAX_VERBOSE_LEVEL constant.
