perf evlist: Reduce affinity use and move into iterator, fix no affinity
The evlist__for_each_cpu iterator will call sched_setaffitinity when moving between CPUs to avoid IPIs. If only 1 IPI is saved then this may be unprofitable as the delay to get scheduled may be considerable. This may be particularly true if reading an event group in `perf stat` in interval mode. Move the affinity handling completely into the iterator so that a single evlist__use_affinity can determine whether CPU affinities will be used. For `perf record` the change is minimal as the dummy event and the real event will always make the use of affinities the thing to do. In `perf stat`, tool events are ignored and affinities only used if >1 event on the same CPU occur. Determining if affinities are useful is done by evlist__use_affinity which tests per-event whether the event's PMU benefits from affinity use - it is assumed only perf event using PMUs do. Fix a bug where when there are no affinities that the CPU map iterator may reference a CPU not present in the initial evsel. Fix by making the iterator and non-iterator code common.
