arm64 support for pmu-events

Description

arm64 support for pmu-events

8cc3815f:
hwpmc_arm64: accept raw event codes for PMC_OP_PMCALLOCATE

Make it possible to specify event codes without an offset of
PMC_EV_ARMV8_FIRST, by setting a machine-dependent flag. This is
required to make use of event definitions from pmu-events.

libpmc: enable pmu_utils on arm64

This allows supported libpmc to query/select from the pmu-events table,
which may have a more complete set of events than what we define
manually. A future update to these definitions should greatly improve
this support. The alias table is empty for now, until this future import
is complete.

27ea55fc:
libpmc/hwpmc: fix issues with arm64 pmu-events support

Due to a mis-merge, the changes committed to libpmc never called
pmu_parse_event(), or set pm->pm_ev. However, this field shouldn't be
used to carry the actual pmc event code anyway, as it is expected to
contain the index into the pmu event array (otherwise, it breaks event
name lookup in pmclog_get_event()). Add a new MD field,
pm_md.pm_md_config, to pass the raw event code to arm64_allocate_pmc().

Additionally, the change made to pmc_md_op_pmcallocate was incorrect, as
this is a union, not a struct. Restore the proper padding size.
