perf list: Allow filtering list of events

The man page has the details, here are some examples:

@ -8,7 +8,7 @@ perf-list - List all symbolic event types
SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
'perf list'
'perf list' [hw|sw|cache|tracepoint|event_glob]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
@ -63,7 +63,26 @@ details. Some of them are referenced in the SEE ALSO section below.
OPTIONS
-------
None
Without options all known events will be listed.
To limit the list use:
. 'hw' or 'hardware' to list hardware events such as cache-misses, etc.
. 'sw' or 'software' to list software events such as context switches, etc.
. 'cache' or 'hwcache' to list hardware cache events such as L1-dcache-loads, etc.
. 'tracepoint' to list all tracepoint events, alternatively use
'subsys_glob:event_glob' to filter by tracepoint subsystems such as sched,
block, etc.
. If none of the above is matched, it will apply the supplied glob to all
events, printing the ones that match.
One or more types can be used at the same time, listing the events for the
types specified.
