[PATCH RFC 15/20] tools/perf: Add arch hooks to override perf standard events

RISC-V doesn't have any standard event encoding defined in the
ISA. Cycle/instruction event is defined in the ISA but lack of
event encoding allow vendors to choose their own encoding scheme.
These events directly map to perf cycle/instruction events which
gets decoded as per perf definitions. An arch hooks allows the
RISC-V implementation to override the encodings if a vendor has
specified the encodings via Json file at runtime.
The alternate solution would be define vendor specific encodings in
the driver similar to other architectures. However, these will grow
over time to become unmaintainable as the number of vendors in RISC-V
can be huge.
