These are all "standard microarchitectural events", which in theory are
supported by every ARMv8 processor. In practice, it depends on the
pmu-event definitions being complete and accurate, which they are not
for every processor. Still, these aliases should be functional on the
majority of systems.

Thanks to the recently updated import of the jevents utility by mav@, we
can now compile the latest version of these event definitions. This
should support a wider set of common ARMv8 processors, for example, the
Cortex-A72 in the Raspberry Pi 4.
This brings this folder in sync with Linux commit 62e6eb8d5454.

It is recommended by Intel to use fixed counters when possible to

This fixes `pmc stat`, which tries to count 6 events same time, while

This is useful for processors where we don't have an event table; in
those cases we default to a Cortex A8 (armv7) or Cortex A53 (arm64) in
order to attempt to provide something useful, but you're then limited to
the counters in those tables, some of which may also not be implemented
(e.g. LD/ST_RETIRED are no longer implemented in more recent cores,
replaced by LD/ST_SPEC).
Adding the raw EVENT_xxH event lists to each table ensures that you can
always request the exact events you want, regardless of what has been
detected or is known.

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.

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.

On x86, the pmu_events table is the source of truth for finding
supported events. However, events not found there may still be present
in the kernel's static event tables. For example, the pmc.soft(3) events
will never be available from pmu-events.
Update pmc_allocate() to search the legacy event tables if
pmc_pmu_pmcallocate() fails to return a result. This allows both event
sources to be consulted before giving up, thus restoring pmc.soft(3) and
pmc.tsc(3) on x86.

This logic was added for handling some of the complicated relationships
between events and x86 CPU models. Since that logic has been mostly
removed from libpmc(3) in favor of pmu-events, this no longer serves
much of a purpose. Mapping CPU types to event tables is already handled
by the switch statement in pmc_init().
