Bjoern Walk 57eef7c412 hyptop: Keep track of string-typed columns ...

For structured output (i.e. JSON), some type information of the columns
is required, at least the ability to distinguish values that are strings
and possibly need to be quoted. Unfortunately at the time column values
are formatted this information is lost.

The column types are specified implicitly during the unit conversion of
the raw value. For example, online time is stored as a u64 value but is
converted into a "d:h:m" string.

Introduce a private flag per column that signifies if that column is to
be formatted as a string. This flag will be set in the appropriate unit
conversion function.
