perf parse-events: Allow config on kernel PMU events

An event like inst_retired.any on an Intel skylake is found in the
pmu-events code created from the pipeline event JSON.

The event is an alias for cpu/event=0xc0,period=2000003/ and
parse-events recognizes the event with the token PE_KERNEL_PMU_EVENT.

The parser doesn't currently allow extra configuration on such events,
except for modifiers, so:

  $ perf stat -e inst_retired.any// /bin/true
  event syntax error: 'inst_retired.any//'
                       \___ parser error
  Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

   Usage: perf stat [<options>] [<command>]

      -e, --event <event>   event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events

This patch adds configuration to these events which can be useful for a
number of parameters like name and call-graph:

  $ sudo perf record -e inst_retired.any/call-graph=lbr/ -a sleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.856 MB perf.data (44 samples) ]

It is necessary for the metric code so that we may add metric-id values
to these events before they are parsed.
