Ian Rogers b161f25fa3 perf parse-events: Only move force grouped evsels when sorting
Prior to this change, events without a group would be sorted as if they
were from the location of the first event without a group. For example
instructions and cycles are without a group:

  instructions,{imc_free_running/data_read/,imc_free_running/data_write/},cycles

parse events would create an eventual evlist like:

  instructions,cycles,{uncore_imc_free_running_0/data_read/,uncore_imc_free_running_1/data_read/,uncore_imc_free_running_0/data_write/,uncore_imc_free_running_1/data_write/}

This is done so that perf metric events, that must always be in a
group, will be adjacent and so can be forced into a group.

This change modifies the sorting so that only force grouped events,
like perf metrics, are sorted and all other events keep their position
with respect to groups in the evlist. The location of the force
grouped event is chosen to match the first force grouped event.

For architectures without force grouped events, ie anything not Intel
Icelake or newer, this should mean sorting and fixing doesn't modify
the event positions except when fixing the grouping for PMUs of things
like uncore events.
