btt: Added in I/O activity per device and system-wide
It now keeps track of I/O activity on a per-device basis (as well as a
cumulative system-wide view). ``I/O activity'' is defined as defined as
the time during which the device driver and device are activelty working
on at least one I/O. Here's a sample output:
==================== I/O Active Period Information ====================

Also added a new btt -Z option that generates per-device and system-wide
I/O activity data that can be plotted.
Refer to the documentation updates (btt.1, btt.tex) for more information.
