perf trace: Honour --max-events in processing syscalls:sys_enter_*

We were doing this only at the sys_exit syscall tracepoint, as for
strace-like we count the pair of sys_enter and sys_exit as one event,
but when asking specifically for a the syscalls:sys_enter_NAME
tracepoint we need to count each of those as an event.

I.e. things like:

  # perf trace --max-events=4 -e syscalls:sys_enter_lseek
     0.000 pool/2242 syscalls:sys_enter_lseek(fd: 14<anon_inode:[timerfd]>, offset: 0, whence: CUR)
     0.034 pool/2242 syscalls:sys_enter_lseek(fd: 15<anon_inode:[timerfd]>, offset: 0, whence: CUR)
     0.051 pool/2242 syscalls:sys_enter_lseek(fd: 16<anon_inode:[timerfd]>, offset: 0, whence: CUR)
  2307.900 sshd/30800 syscalls:sys_enter_lseek(fd: 3</usr/lib64/libsystemd.so.0.25.0>, offset: 9032, whence: SET)
  #

Were going on forever, since we only had sys_enter events.
