drivers/perf: riscv_pmu_sbi: add support for PMU variant on T-Head C9xx cores
With the T-HEAD C9XX cores being designed before or during the ratification
to the SSCOFPMF extension, it implements functionality very similar but
not equal to it.

It implements overflow handling and also some privilege-mode filtering.
While SSCOFPMF supports this for all modes, the C9XX only implements the
filtering for M-mode and S-mode but not user-mode.

So add some adaptions to allow the C9XX to still handle
its PMU through the regular SBI PMU interface instead of defining new
interfaces or drivers.

To work properly, this requires a matching change in SBI, though the actual
interface between kernel and SBI does not change.

The main differences are a the overflow CSR and irq number.

As the reading of the overflow-csr is in the hot-path during irq handling,
use an errata and alternatives to not introduce new conditionals there.
