perf stat: Introduce skippable evsels

Browse Source 
'perf stat' with no arguments will use default events and metrics. These
events may fail to open even with kernel and hypervisor disabled. When
these fail then the permissions error appears even though they were
implicitly selected. This is particularly a problem with the automatic
selection of the TopdownL1 metric group on certain architectures like
Skylake:

  $ perf stat true
  Error:
  Access to performance monitoring and observability operations is limited.
  Consider adjusting /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid setting to open
  access to performance monitoring and observability operations for processes
  without CAP_PERFMON, CAP_SYS_PTRACE or CAP_SYS_ADMIN Linux capability.
  More information can be found at 'Perf events and tool security' document:
  https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/perf-security.html
  perf_event_paranoid setting is 2:
    -1: Allow use of (almost) all events by all users
        Ignore mlock limit after perf_event_mlock_kb without CAP_IPC_LOCK
  >= 0: Disallow raw and ftrace function tracepoint access
  >= 1: Disallow CPU event access
  >= 2: Disallow kernel profiling
  To make the adjusted perf_event_paranoid setting permanent preserve it
  in /etc/sysctl.conf (e.g. kernel.perf_event_paranoid = <setting>)
  $

This patch adds skippable evsels that when they fail to open won't cause
termination and will appear as "<not supported>" in output. The
TopdownL1 events, from the metric group, are marked as skippable. This
turns the failure above to:

  $ perf stat perf bench internals synthesize
  Computing performance of single threaded perf event synthesis by
  synthesizing events on the perf process itself:
    Average synthesis took: 49.287 usec (+- 0.083 usec)
    Average num. events: 3.000 (+- 0.000)
    Average time per event 16.429 usec
    Average data synthesis took: 49.641 usec (+- 0.085 usec)
    Average num. events: 11.000 (+- 0.000)
    Average time per event 4.513 usec

The event INT_MISC.RECOVERY_CYCLES_ANY:u is skipped as it can't be
opened with paranoia 2 on Skylake. With a lower paranoia, or as root,
all events/metrics are computed.
