perf/x86/intel: Implement LBR callstack context synchronization



Implement intel_pmu_lbr_swap_task_ctx() method updating counters
of the events that requested LBR callstack data on a sample.

The counter can be zero for the case when task context belongs to
a thread that has just come from a block on a futex and the context
contains saved (lbr_stack_state == LBR_VALID) LBR register values.

For the values to be restored at LBR registers on the next thread's
switch-in event it swaps the counter value with the one that is
expected to be non zero at the previous equivalent task perf event
context.

Swap operation type ensures the previous task perf event context
stays consistent with the amount of events that requested LBR
callstack data on a sample.
