Right, added it.
Branch is force-pushed.
Here is the new commit message:
| sysprof: remove `split by vmstate` option
|
| The option was introduced early into the sysprof's
| development to provide capabilities for per-VM-state
| callchain visualization. However, during the sysprof's
| recent active in-house usage period, it became clear
| that performance issues associated with specific VM
| states (such as GC, for example) have a distinct look
| on a flamegraph itself, thanks to their name prefixes
| and their surrounding context. Furthermore, one can
| still use counters returned by `sysprof.report` to get
| insight into per-VM-state performance.
|
| This option is unneeded and was never used
| by anybody. There is no reason to maintain it
| in the scope of refactoring.
|
| Needed for tarantool/tarantool#8700
