[PATCH v8 3/4] perf utils: Add helper function is_pmu_core to detect PMU CORE devices

[Ganapatrao Kulkarni]

On some platforms, PMU core devices sysfs name is not cpu.
Adding function is_pmu_core to detect PMU core devices using
core device specific hints in sysfs.

For arm64 platforms, all core devices have file "cpus" in sysfs.
