perf/bpf_skel: use vmlinux.h in skeletons

When building bpf_skel in perf on a system with older linux/bpf.h header,
we got errors like:

   util/bpf_skel/bperf_leader.bpf.c:13:20: error: use of undeclared
   identifier 'BPF_F_PRESERVE_ELEMS'
           __uint(map_flags, BPF_F_PRESERVE_ELEMS);

Fix this by using vmlinux.h instead. Also remove include of perf_event.h,
as it redefines structs in vmlinux.h.

Fixes: fa853c4b839e ("perf stat: Enable counting events for BPF programs")
Fixes: 7fac83aaf2ee ("perf stat: Introduce 'bperf' to share hardware PMCs with BPF")
