perf evsel: Improve EPERM error handling in open_strerror()

We were showing a hardcoded default value for the kernel.perf_event_paranoid
sysctl, now that it became more paranoid (1 -> 2 [1]), this would need to be
updated, instead show the current value:

  [acme@jouet linux]$ perf record ls
  Error:
  You may not have permission to collect stats.

  Consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid,
  which controls use of the performance events system by
  unprivileged users (without CAP_SYS_ADMIN).

  The current value is 2:

    -1: Allow use of (almost) all events by all users
  >= 0: Disallow raw tracepoint access by users without CAP_IOC_LOCK
  >= 1: Disallow CPU event access by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
  >= 2: Disallow kernel profiling by users without CAP_SYS_ADMIN
  [acme@jouet linux]$
