Convert sampled call-stack profiler data into a flame tree and find the slowest function.

A practical build screen: turn a stream of sampled call stacks into a flame tree, then report self-time vs total-time per function. The trap is conflating the two times. Here is how to aggregate the tree and rank the hot functions.
