fix(tools/perf-flamegraph): Get rid of most 'unknown's

This makes two main changes:

1) It disables profiling of things that aren't part of the invoked
   process (-a). This isn't particularly useful in most cases because
   it will show things like Chrome's VP9 decoding while you're
   profiling something else.

2) It tells perf about the debug symbol format, which for some reason
   isn't DWARF2 by default.
