Subject: [PATCH v2 1/4] perf/trace: Add function to find event type by name

This patch adds function to find struct trace_event by event name like
"sched_switch" , and return its type so that Intel PT logger can enable
the trace event in kernel. Intel PT logger needs this because it needs
sched_switch tracing to collect side-band data.
