perf stat: New metricgroup output for the default mode

In the default mode, the current output of the metricgroup include both
events and metrics, which is not necessary and just makes the output
hard to read. Since different ARCHs (even different generations in the
same ARCH) may use different events. The output also vary on different
platforms.

For a metricgroup, only outputting the value of each metric is good
enough.

Add a new field default_metricgroup in evsel to indicate an event of the
default metricgroup. For those events, printout() should print the
metricgroup name rather than each event.

Add perf_stat__skip_metric_event() to skip the evsel in the Default
metricgroup, if it's not running or not the metric event.

Add print_metricgroup_header_t to pass the functions which print the
display name of each metricgroup in the Default metricgroup. Support all
three output methods.

Factor out perf_stat__print_shadow_stats_metricgroup() to print out each
metrics.
