perf tools: Enable event_config terms to tracepoint events



This patch enables config terms for tracepoint perf events. Valid terms
for tracepoint events are 'call-graph' and 'stack-size', so we can use
different callgraph settings for each event and eliminate unnecessary
overhead.

Here is an example for using different call-graph config for each
tracepoint.

  $ perf record -e syscalls:sys_enter_write/call-graph=fp/
                -e syscalls:sys_exit_write/call-graph=no/
                dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=4k count=10

  $ perf report --stdio
