perf_counter: revamp syscall input ABI
Impact: modify ABI
The hardware/software classification in hw_event->type became a little
strained due to the addition of tracepoint tracing.
Instead split up the field and provide a type field to explicitly specify
the counter type, while using the event_id field to specify which event to
use.
Raw counters still work as before, only the raw config now goes into
raw_event.
