why not use a comma-separated list? that is more common

I have to admit that this is not a great example as it does not match an 
expected real-life scenario. I mean, I would not expect a PMU identifier 
for the same PMU to be in either format "abcde" or "123*". I would 
expect to be in only ever one format.

why duplicate this? are you modifying something?

This is not for metrics specifically. You are really doing 2x things 
here. I suggest that you split the patch out into 1st pmu.c change and 
2nd metricgroup.c change

nit: let's change order to check alias and then identifier
