Subject: [PATCH v2 19/20] x86: perf/core: advertise PMU exclusion capability

For PMUs that have the capability to exclude events based
on context. Let's advertise that we support the
PERF_PMU_CAP_EXCLUDE capability to ensure that perf doesn't
prevent us from handling events where any exclusion flags
are set.
