perf report: Fix memory leaks in the hierarchy mode

Ian told me that there are many memory leaks in the hierarchy mode.  I
can easily reproduce it with the follwing command.

  $ make DEBUG=1 EXTRA_CFLAGS=-fsanitize=leak

  $ perf record --latency -g -- ./perf test -w thloop

  $ perf report -H --stdio
  ...
  Indirect leak of 168 byte(s) in 21 object(s) allocated from:

  $ perf report -H --stdio 2>&1 | grep -c '^Indirect leak'
  93

I found that hist_entry__delete() missed to release child entries in the
hierarchy tree (hroot_{in,out}).  It needs to iterate the child entries
and call hist_entry__delete() recursively.

After this change:

  $ perf report -H --stdio 2>&1 | grep -c '^Indirect leak'
  0
