[PATCH V2 2/3] perf tools: parse the pmu event prefix and surfix

There are two types of event formats for PMU events. E.g. el-abort OR
perf tools: parse the pmu event prefix and surfix

There are two types of event formats for PMU events. E.g. el-abort OR
cpu/el-abort/. However, the lexer mistakenly recognizes the simple style
format as two events.

The parse_events_pmu_check function uses bsearch to search the name in
known pmu event list. It can tell the lexer that the name is a PE_NAME
or a PMU event name prefix or a PMU event name suffix. All these
information will be used for accurately parsing kernel PMU events.

The pmu events list will be read from sysfs at runtime.
