[PATCH v7 24/27] perf test: Switch cycles event to cpu-cycles

[Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com>]

Without a PMU perf matches an event against any PMU with the
event. Unfortunately some PMU drivers advertise a "cycles" event which
is typically just a core event. As tests assume a core event, switch
to use "cpu-cycles" that avoids the overloaded "cycles" event on
troublesome PMUs and is so far not overloaded. Note, on x86 this
changes a legacy event into a sysfs one.
