libperf: Add support for user space counter access

x86 and arm64 can both support direct access of event counters in
userspace. The access sequence is less than trivial and currently exists
in perf test code (tools/perf/arch/x86/tests/rdpmc.c) with copies in
projects such as PAPI and libpfm4.

In order to support userspace access, an event must be mmapped first
with perf_evsel__mmap(). Then subsequent calls to perf_evsel__read()
will use the fast path (assuming the arch supports it).

Committer notes:

Added a '__maybe_unused' attribute to the read_perf_counter() argument
to fix the build on arches other than x86_64 and arm.

Committer testing:

  Building and running the libperf tests in verbose mode (V=1) now shows
  those "loop = N, count = N" extra lines, testing user space counter
  access.
