[PATCH V6 5/8] perf/tools: Add system error and not in transaction branch types

This updates the perf tool with generic branch type classification with two
new branch types i.e system error (PERF_BR_SERROR) and not in transaction
(PERF_BR_NO_TX) which got updated earlier in the kernel. This also updates
corresponding branch type strings in branch_type_name().
