perf tests: Add event parsing error handling to parse events test

Add missing error handling for parse_events calls in test_event function
that led to following segfault on s390:

running test 52 'intel_pt//u'
perf: Segmentation fault
...
/lib64/libc.so.6(vasprintf+0xe6) [0x3fffca3f106]
/lib64/libc.so.6(asprintf+0x46) [0x3fffca1aa96]
./perf(parse_events_add_pmu+0xb8) [0x80132088]
./perf(parse_events_parse+0xc62) [0x8019529a]
./perf(parse_events+0x98) [0x801341c0]
./perf(test__parse_events+0x48) [0x800cd140]
./perf(cmd_test+0x26a) [0x800bd44a]
test child interrupted

Adding the struct parse_events_error argument to parse_events call. Also
adding parse_events_print_error to get more details on the parsing
failures, like:

# perf test 6 -v
running test 52 'intel_pt//u'failed to parse event 'intel_pt//u', err 1, str 'Cannot find PMU `intel_pt'. Missing kernel support?'
event syntax error: 'intel_pt//u'
\___ Cannot find PMU `intel_pt'. Missing kernel support?

Committer note:

Use named initializers in the struct parse_events_error variable to
avoid breaking the build on centos5, 6 and others with a similar gcc:

cc1: warnings being treated as errors
tests/parse-events.c: In function 'test_event':
tests/parse-events.c:1696: error: missing initializer
tests/parse-events.c:1696: error: (near initialization for 'err.str')
