Oh, sorry -- I missed the point of this patch.

xentrace_format: print timestamps in nanoseconds
...rather than seconds. Having timestamps for rapidly-occurring events
in nanoseconds makes it easier to understand what's going on.
While here, document the -c option.

What I do in xenalyze is to have the timestamps in seconds, but always
print down to the nanosecond. (For this I actually break cpu cycles
into s and ns separately, and then print "%u.%09u".)
But this is also fine with me.
