perf pmu: Add support for PMU capabilities

The PMU capabilities information, which is located at
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/<dev>/caps, is required by perf tool.  For
example, the max LBR information is required to stitch LBR call stack.

Add perf_pmu__caps_parse() to parse the PMU capabilities information.
The information is stored in a list.

The following patch will store the capabilities information in perf
header.

Committer notes:

Here's an example of such directories and its files in an i5 7th gen
machine:

Wow, first time I've heard about
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/caps/max_precise, I think I'll use it!
