When filtering, the group leader event should not be disabled, as all
other events under it will also be disabled. Also we should make sure
that values from disabled fields will not be displayed.

This also filters the fields from the log and batch output for better
readability.

Also the drilldown update now directly checks for the stats' field
filter and (un)sets drilldown accordingly.

Setting the hard limit as a unprivileged user either returns an error
when it is higher than the current one or irreversibly sets it lower.

Therefore we leave the hardlimit untouched as long as we don't need to
raise it as this needs CAP_SYS_RESOURCE.

This gives admins the possibility to run the script as an unprivileged

kvm_exit(WFI)               9422      9361

While running kvm_stat using tracepoint on ARM64 hardware (e.g. "kvm_stat
-1 -t"), the initial values of some kvm_userspace_exit counters were found
to be very suspecious. For instance the tracing tool showed that S390_TSCH
was called many times on ARM64 machine, which apparently was wrong.

This patch adds RESET ioctl support for perf monitoring. Before calling
ioctl to enable a perf event, this patch resets the counter first. With
this patch, the init counter values become correct on ARM64 hardware.

Example:

==== before patch ====
kvm_userspace_exit(S390_SIEIC)      1426         0
kvm_userspace_exit(S390_TSCH)       339         0

==== after patch ====
kvm_userspace_exit(S390_SIEIC)         0         0
kvm_userspace_exit(S390_TSCH)         0         0
