perf branch: Extend branch type classification

This updates the perf tool with generic branch type classification with new ABI extender place holder i.e PERF_BR_EXTEND_ABI, the new 4 bit branch type field i.e perf_branch_entry.new_type, new generic page fault related branch types and some arch specific branch types as added earlier in the kernel. Committer note: Add an extra entry to the branch_type_name array to cope with PERF_BR_EXTEND_ABI, to address build warnings on some compiler/systems, like: 75 8.89 ubuntu:20.04-x-powerpc64el : FAIL gcc version 10.3.0 (Ubuntu 10.3.0-1ubuntu1~20.04) inlined from 'branch_type_stat_display' at util/branch.c:152:4: /usr/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/include/bits/stdio2.h:100:10: error: '%8s' directive argument is null [-Werror=format-overflow=] 100 | return __fprintf_chk (__stream, __USE_FORTIFY_LEVEL - 1, __fmt, | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 101 | __va_arg_pack ()); | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
