perf evlist: Remove nr_groups
Maintaining the number of groups during event parsing is problematic and since changing to sort/regroup events can only be computed by a linear pass over the evlist. As the value is generally only used in tests, rather than hold it in a variable compute it by passing over the evlist when necessary. This change highlights that libpfm's counting of groups with a single entry disagreed with regular event parsing. The libpfm tests are updated accordingly.
