Subject: [PATCH v4 07/22] perf jevents: Add br metric group for branch
 statistics on Intel

The br metric group for branches itself comprises metric groups for
total, taken, conditional, fused and far metric groups using json
events. Conditional taken and not taken metrics are specific to
Icelake and later generations, so the presence of the event is used to
determine whether the metric should exist.
