perf/x86/intel: Enable conflicting event scheduling for CQM
We can leverage the workqueue that we use for RMID rotation to support scheduling of conflicting monitoring events. Allowing events that monitor conflicting things is done at various other places in the perf subsystem, so there's precedent there. An example of two conflicting events would be monitoring a cgroup and simultaneously monitoring a task within that cgroup. This uses the cache_groups list as a queuing mechanism, where every event that reaches the front of the list gets the chance to be scheduled in, possibly descheduling any conflicting events that are running.
