perf_counter: Separate out attr->type from attr->config
Counter type is a frequently used value and we do a lot of bit juggling by encoding and decoding it from attr->config. Clean this up by creating a separate attr->type field. Also clean up the various similarly complex user-space bits all around counter attribute management. The net improvement is significant, and it will be easier to add a new major type (which is what triggered this cleanup). (This changes the ABI, all tools are adapted.) (PowerPC build-tested.)
