perf_counter: Implement generalized cache event types

Extend generic event enumeration with the PERF_TYPE_HW_CACHE
method.

This is a 3-dimensional space:

       { L1-D, L1-I, L2, ITLB, DTLB, BPU } x
       { load, store, prefetch } x
       { accesses, misses }

User-space passes in the 3 coordinates and the kernel provides
a counter. (if the hardware supports that type and if the
combination makes sense.)

Combinations that make no sense produce a -EINVAL.
Combinations that are not supported by the hardware produce -ENOTSUP.

Extend the tools to deal with this, and rewrite the event symbol
parsing code with various popular aliases for the units and
access methods above. So 'l1-cache-miss' and 'l1d-read-ops' are
both valid aliases.

( x86 is supported for now, with the Nehalem event table filled in,
  and with Core2 and Atom having placeholder tables. )
