perf/x86/intel: Support TopDown metrics on Ice Lake



Ice Lake supports the hardware TopDown metrics feature, which can free
up the scarce GP counters.

Update the event constraints for the metrics events. The metric counters
do not exist, which are mapped to a dummy offset. The sharing between
multiple users of the same metric without multiplexing is not allowed.

Implement set_topdown_event_period for Ice Lake. The values in
PERF_METRICS MSR are derived from the fixed counter 3. Both registers
should start from zero.

Implement update_topdown_event for Ice Lake. The metric is reported by
multiplying the metric (fraction) with slots. To maintain accurate
measurements, both registers are cleared for each update. The fixed
counter 3 should always be cleared before the PERF_METRICS.

Implement td_attr for the new metrics events and the new slots fixed
counter. Make them visible to the perf user tools.
