perf parse-events: Make common term list to strbuf helper
A term list is turned into a string for debug output and for the str
value in the alias.
Add a helper to do this based on existing code, but then fix for
situations like events being identified.
Use strbuf to manage the dynamic memory allocation and remove the 256
byte limit.
Use in various places the string of the term list is required.
Before:
$ sudo perf stat -vv -e inst_retired.any true
Using CPUID GenuineIntel-6-8D-1
intel_pt default config: tsc,mtc,mtc_period=3,psb_period=3,pt,branch
Attempting to add event pmu 'cpu' with 'inst_retired.any,' that may result in non-fatal errors
After aliases, add event pmu 'cpu' with 'event,period,' that may result in non-fatal errors
inst_retired.any -> cpu/inst_retired.any/
...
After:
$ sudo perf stat -vv -e inst_retired.any true
Using CPUID GenuineIntel-6-8D-1
intel_pt default config: tsc,mtc,mtc_period=3,psb_period=3,pt,branch
Attempt to add: cpu/inst_retired.any/
..after resolving event: cpu/event=0xc0,period=0x1e8483/
inst_retired.any -> cpu/event=0xc0,period=0x1e8483/
