perf/core: out-of-line and export perf_allow_cpu/tracepoint()
These helpers are static inline in <linux/perf_event.h> and reach into sysctl_perf_event_paranoid and security_perf_event_open(), neither of which is itself exported. The perf_allow_* trio is therefore asymmetric: built-in callers can use any of the three, but modular code can only call perf_allow_kernel(). Move both bodies into kernel/events/core.c next to perf_allow_kernel() and export them with EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL, following the shape of commit 5e9629d0ae97 ("drivers/perf: arm_spe: Use perf_allow_kernel() for permissions"). Existing in-tree callers live in built-in arch and tracing code, so the change is invisible to them. Provide !CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS stubs that fall back to perfmon_capable(), so the helpers stay callable when perf is compiled out.
