perf top: Fix annoying fallback message on older kernels

On older (e.g. v4.4) kernels, an annoying fallback message can be
observed in 'perf top':

	┌─Warning:──────────────────────┐
	│fall back to non-overwrite mode│
	│                               │
	│                               │
	│Press any key...               │
	└───────────────────────────────┘

The 'perf top' utility has been changed to overwrite mode since commit
ebebbf0823 ("perf top: Switch default mode to overwrite mode").

For older kernels which don't have overwrite mode support, 'perf top'
will fall back to non-overwrite mode and print out the fallback message
using ui__warning(), which needs user's input to close.

The fallback message is not critical for end users. Turning it to debug
message which is printed when running with -vv.
