Subject: [PATCH 3/7] perf tools: Improve the message of perf list for unexpected input.

Example:
        # perf list test

        List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):
        # echo $?
        0

Verification:
        # perf list test

        'test' is not a valid event type, please see the usage below for acceptable ones.
        Usage:
                perf list [hw|sw|cache|tracepoint|pmu|event_glob]
        # echo $?
        255
