Rob Herring e552b7be12 perf: Skip and warn on unknown format 'configN' attrs
If the kernel exposes a new perf_event_attr field in a format attr, perf
will return an error stating the specified PMU can't be found. For
example, a format attr with 'config3:0-63' causes an error as config3 is
unknown to perf. This causes a compatibility issue between a newer
kernel with older perf tool.

Before this change with a kernel adding 'config3' I get:

  $ perf record -e arm_spe// -- true
  event syntax error: 'arm_spe//'
                       \___ Cannot find PMU `arm_spe'. Missing kernel support?
  Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

   Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
      or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]

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

After this change, I get:

  $ perf record -e arm_spe// -- true
  WARNING: 'arm_spe_0' format 'inv_event_filter' requires 'perf_event_attr::config3' which is not supported by this version of perf!
  [ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.091 MB perf.data ]

To support unknown configN formats, rework the YACC implementation to
pass any config[0-9]+ format to perf_pmu__new_format() to handle with a
warning.
