perf parse-events: Remove "not supported" hybrid cache events
By default, we create two hybrid cache events, one is for cpu_core, and another is for cpu_atom. But Some hybrid hardware cache events are only available on one CPU PMU. For example, the 'L1-dcache-load-misses' is only available on cpu_core, while the 'L1-icache-loads' is only available on cpu_atom. We need to remove "not supported" hybrid cache events. By extending is_event_supported() to global API and using it to check if the hybrid cache events are supported before being created, we can remove the "not supported" hybrid cache events.
