perf jevents: Add test for arch std events



Recently there was an undetected breakage for std arch event support.

Add support in "PMU events" testcase to detect such breakages.

For this, the "test" arch needs has support added to process std arch
events. And a test event is added for the test, ifself.

Also add a few code comments to help understand the code a bit better.

Committer testing:

Before:

  # perf test -vv pmu  |& grep l3_cache_rd
  #

After:

  # perf test -vv pmu  |& grep l3_cache_rd
  testing event table l3_cache_rd: pass
  testing aliases PMU cpu: matched event l3_cache_rd
  #
