perf pmus: Sort pmus by name then suffix



Sort PMUs by name. If two PMUs have the same name but differ by
suffix, sort the suffixes numerically.

For example, "breakpoint" comes before "cpu",
"uncore_imc_free_running_0" comes before "uncore_imc_free_running_1".

Suffixes need to be treated specially as otherwise they will be ordered
like 0, 1, 10, 11, .., 2, 20, 21, .., etc. Only PMUs starting 'uncore_'
are considered to have a potential suffix.

Sorting of PMUs is done so that later patches can skip duplicate uncore
PMUs that differ only by there suffix.

Committer notes:

Used the more compact, intention revealing strstarts() function we got
from the kernel sources:

-       if (strncmp(str, "uncore_", 7))
+       if (!strstarts(str, "uncore_"))

Also in pmus_cmp() the lhs_num and rhs_num variables may end up not
being set for non "uncore_" prefixed PMUs in pmu_name_len_no_suffix(),
or at least gcc 7.5 in some distros (opensuse 15.5, to be EOLed in
Dec/2024) thins so, so initialize both to zero.
