From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Provide an interface for the application to iterate over all the entries
in the traceeval histogram.

 traceeval_iterator_get() - acquire an iterator for the given traceeval
 traceveal_iterator_put() - release the iterator
 traceeval_iterator_sort() - sort the iterator for a given key/value
 traceeval_iterator_next() - return the keys of the next entry in the
                             traceeval

I think we also need to free **sort and *direction, which are both allocated
in traceeval_iterator_sort().    Probably need to update the function comment
as well to include allocs from that function.

nit: It'd probably help with readability to have:

  int num_levels = level + 1;

and use that instead of (level + 1).

This is already done in sort_iter().

Yes, thanks.

Sure, I'm just so use to the (level + 1), that it comes natural for me now.
But I do agree, from a readability standpoint, having a "num_levels" would
be better.

Yep, I know. But I love redundancy ;-)

I actually added it to both at the same time because I didn't know which
one was better to have it. I compromised, and just said "OK do it in both!"
