perf: x86/core: Add interface to query perfmon_event_map[] directly

Currently, we have [intel|knc|p4|p6]_perfmon_event_map on the Intel
platforms and amd_[f17h]_perfmon_event_map on the AMD platforms.

Early clumsy KVM code or other potential perf_event users may have
hard-coded these perfmon_maps (e.g., arch/x86/kvm/svm/pmu.c), so
it would not make sense to program a common hardware event based
on the generic "enum perf_hw_id" once the two tables do not match.

Let's provide an interface for callers outside the perf subsystem to get
the counter config based on the perfmon_event_map currently in use,
and it also helps to save bytes.
