Subject: [PATCH v1] perf stat: Don't display metric header for non-leader
 uncore events

On an Intel tigerlake laptop a metric like:
```
    {
        "BriefDescription": "Test",
        "MetricExpr": "imc_free_running@...a_read@ + imc_free_running@...a_write@",
        "MetricGroup": "Test",
        "MetricName": "Test",
        "ScaleUnit": "6.103515625e-5MiB"
    },
```
Will have 4 events:
uncore_imc_free_running_0/data_read/
uncore_imc_free_running_0/data_write/
uncore_imc_free_running_1/data_read/
uncore_imc_free_running_1/data_write/

If aggregration is disabled with metric-only 2 column headers are
needed:
```
$ perf stat -M test --metric-only -A -a sleep 1

 Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

                  MiB  Test            MiB  Test
CPU0                 1821.0               1820.5
```
But when not, the counts aggregated in the metric leader and only 1
column should be shown:
```
$ perf stat -M test --metric-only -a sleep 1
 Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

            MiB  Test
              5909.4

       1.001258915 seconds time elapsed
```
Achieve this by skipping events that aren't metric leaders when
printing column headers and aggregation isn't disabled.

The bug is long standing, the fixes tag is set to a refactor as that
is as far back as is reasonable to backport.
