Architectures can detect availability of extra registers at runtime so
use this more complete set for unwinding. This will include the VG
register on arm64 in a later commit.
If the function isn't implemented then PERF_REGS_MASK is returned and
there is no change.
Committer notes:
Added util/perf_regs.c to tools/perf/util/python-ext-sources so that
'perf test python' passes, i.e. the perf python binding has all the
symbols it needs, addressing:
$ perf test -v python
19: 'import perf' in python :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 2037817
python usage test: "echo "import sys ; sys.path.append('/tmp/build/perf/python'); import perf" | '/usr/bin/python3' "
Traceback (most recent call last):

---- end ----
