RFC PATCH 1/1 tools/power turbostat: Fix ACPI CState format issue

Currently if the system boots with BIOS _CST Cstate information enabled, the turbostat output would have unaligned problems:

C1_ACPI C2_ACPI C3_ACPI POLL%   C1_ACPI%        C2_ACPI%        C3_ACPI%        CPU%c1
5       37      138     0.00    0.02    1.30    98.51   0.38    0.00    0.00    99.43

The C1_ACPI% is of 8 bytes, so extend the format accordingly if the field name equals to/longer than 8 bytes.

After the patch applied:

C1_ACPI C2_ACPI C3_ACPI POLL%   C1_ACPI%        C2_ACPI%        C3_ACPI%        CPU%c1
2       42      96      0.00    0.12            2.60            97.09           0.60

Let's shorten the header fields so that a single tab continues to work. this is helpful for processing turbostat output in .TSV format.

thx

Okay. BTW it looks like the following patch has already fixed the _CST format issue and single tab still works:
