[PATCH v5 0/4] perf arm_spe: Extend SIMD operations

[Leo Yan]

This series extends SIMD flag for Arm SPE and updated the document.

Since I failed to get perf core maintainer's review for uAPI header
updating for data source fields (since last year's Sepetember), this
series I dropped uAPI changes and sent only SIMD flag changes, hope
it is easier for perf tool maintainer's picking up.

Anyway, uAPI patches will be sent out separately.

This version is rebased onto the latest perf-tools-next branch.
