perf test: Improve pmu event metric testing

Break pmu-events test into 2 and add a test to verify that all pmu
metric expressions simply parse. Try to parse all metric ids/events,
skip/warn if metrics for the current architecture fail to parse. To
support warning for a skip, and an ability for a subtest to describe why
it skips.

Tested on power9, skylakex, haswell, broadwell, westmere, sandybridge and
ivybridge.

May skip/warn on other architectures if metrics are invalid. In
particular s390 is untested, but its expressions are trivial. The
untested architectures with expressions are power8, cascadelakex,
tremontx, skylake, jaketown, ivytown and variants of haswell and
broadwell.

v3. addresses review comments from John Garry <john.garry@huawei.com>,
Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> and Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
<acme@kernel.org>.
v2. changes the commit message as event parsing errors no longer cause
the test to fail.

Committer notes:

Check the return value of strtod() to fix the build in systems where
that function is declared with attribute warn_unused_result.
