[PATCH 7/9] perf tools: Add static terms support for parse_events_error

[Jiri Olsa]

Allowing static terms like 'name,period,config,config1..' processing
to report back error.

  $ perf record -e 'cpu/event=1,name=1/' ls
  event syntax error: '..=1,name=1/'
                                 \___ expected string value

  $ perf record -e 'cpu/event=1,period=krava/' ls
  event syntax error: '..,period=krava/'
                                 \___ expected numeric value

  $ perf record -e 'cpu/config=krava1/' ls
  event syntax error: '../config=krava1/'
                                 \___ expected numeric value
