[RFC PATCH v6 18/35] perf: arm_spe_pmu: Add PMSIDR_EL1 to struct arm_spe_pmu

The host SPE driver might find itself lagging behind the architecture
when it comes to new features, so KVM cannot rely on the 'features'
field to completely describe the SPE implementation.
Some features are advertised in PMSIDR_EL1, so teach the driver to save a
copy of PMSIDR_EL1 in struct arm_spe_pmu, from where it will be consumed
directly by KVM.
