[PATCH v1 1/4] perf test shell lbr: Avoid failures with perf event paranoia

[Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com>]

When not running as root and with higher perf event paranoia values
the perf record LBR tests could fail rather than skipping the
problematic tests. Add the sensitivity to the test and confirm it
passes with paranoia values from -1 to 2.

Fixes: 32559b99e0f5 ("perf test: Add set of perf record LBR tests")
