blkparse: man: add absolute timestamp printing option
The functionality of printing out absolute timestamps has been
implemented in code but not documented in man pages.
When comparing the timings of related events with block I/O traces,
the absolute timestams play a key role. I think that the
documentation of this might be beneficial to blktrace users.
The related commit was done in 2006 as follows,
