perf parse-events: Support event alias in form foo-bar-baz

Event aliasing for events whose name in the form foo-bar-baz is not
supported, while foo-bar, foo_bar_baz, and other combinations are, i.e.
two hyphens are not supported.

The HiSilicon D06 platform has events in such form:

  $ ./perf list sdir-home-migrate

  List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):

  uncore hha:
    sdir-home-migrate
   [Unit: hisi_sccl,hha]

  $ sudo ./perf stat -e sdir-home-migrate
  event syntax error: 'sdir-home-migrate'
                          \___ parser error
  Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

   Usage: perf stat [<options>] [<command>]

   -e, --event <event>event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events

To support, add an extra PMU event symbol type for "baz", and add a new
rule in the bison file.
