[PATCH RFC 4/6] riscv: perf: Add infrastructure for Control Transfer Record

To support Control Transfer Records (CTR) extension, we need to extend the
riscv_pmu framework with some basic infrastructure for branch stack sampling.
Subsequent patches will use this to add support for CTR in the riscv_pmu_dev
driver.
With CTR, the branches are stored into a hardware FIFO, which will be sampled
by software when perf events overflow. A task may be context- switched between
overflows, and to avoid leaking samples we need to clear the last task's
records when a task is context-switched In. To do this we will be using the
pmu::sched_task() callback added in this patch.
