Adrian Hunter e00eac6b5b perf intel-pt: Fix PEBS-via-PT data_src
The Fixes commit did not add support for decoding PEBS-via-PT data_src.
Fix by adding support.

PEBS-via-PT is a feature of some E-core processors, starting with
processors based on Tremont microarchitecture. Because the kernel only
supports Intel PT features that are on all processors, there is no support
for PEBS-via-PT on hybrids.

Currently that leaves processors based on Tremont, Gracemont and Crestmont,
however there are no events on Tremont that produce data_src information,
and for Gracemont and Crestmont there are only:

	mem-loads	event=0xd0,umask=0x5,ldlat=3
	mem-stores	event=0xd0,umask=0x6

Affected processors include Alder Lake N (Gracemont), Sierra Forest
(Crestmont) and Grand Ridge (Crestmont).

Example:

 # perf record -d -e intel_pt/branch=0/ -e mem-loads/aux-output/pp uname

 Before:

  # perf.before script --itrace=o -Fdata_src
            0 |OP No|LVL N/A|SNP N/A|TLB N/A|LCK No|BLK  N/A
            0 |OP No|LVL N/A|SNP N/A|TLB N/A|LCK No|BLK  N/A

 After:

  # perf script --itrace=o -Fdata_src
  10268100142 |OP LOAD|LVL L1 hit|SNP None|TLB L1 or L2 hit|LCK No|BLK  N/A
  10450100442 |OP LOAD|LVL L2 hit|SNP None|TLB L2 miss|LCK No|BLK  N/A
