perf tools fixes for 6.5: 2nd batch
- Fix segfault in the powerpc specific arch_skip_callchain_idx function.
The patch doing the reference count init/exit that went into 6.5 missed
this function.
- Fix regression reading the arm64 PMU cpu slots in sysfs, a patch removing
some code duplication ended up duplicating the /sysfs prefix for these files.
- Fix grouping of events related to topdown, addressing a regression on the CSV
output produced by 'perf stat' noticed on the downstream tool toplev.
- Fix the uprobe_from_different_cu 'perf test' entry, it is failing when
gcc isn't available, so we need to check that and skip the test if it
is not installed.

perf test parse-events: Test complex name has required event format
test__checkevent_complex_name will use an "event" format which if not
present, such as with a placeholder PMU, will cause test failures. Skip
the test in this case to avoid failures in restricted environments.
Add perf_pmu__has_format utility as a general PMU utility.
