[PATCH 2/2] perf tsc: Replace the compile-time TSC support check with a weak hook

[Chen Pei <cp0613@linux.alibaba.com>]

The "TSC support" subtest of the "Convert perf time to TSC" test decides
whether the architecture is covered by matching compiler macros for
x86_64, i386 and arm64.  That list has to be edited for every new
architecture, and it can drift apart from the set of architectures that
really provide a counter: util/tsc.c already ships a weak rdtsc() which
an architecture overrides with a strong definition when it has one.

Add a weak arch__rdtsc_supported() next to the weak rdtsc(), let the
test query it instead of the macros, and have x86, arm64 and riscv
override it in the file where they implement rdtsc().  Support is then
declared next to the counter it describes, and a caller can tell a stub
apart from a real counter without keeping its own copy of the macro
list.  This follows the pattern of the other optional per-architecture
hooks in util/ such as get_cpuid_str().

x86 and arm64 keep the same behaviour, and riscv starts running the
subtest because it gained rdtsc() in the previous patch.
