perf/core: Allow reading package events from perf_event_read_local
Per-package perf events are typically registered with a single CPU only, however they can be read across all the CPUs within the package. Currently perf_event_read maps the event CPU according to the topology information to avoid an unnecessary SMP call, however perf_event_read_local deals with hard values and rejects a read with a failure if the CPU is not the one exactly registered. Allow similar mapping within the perf_event_read_local if the perf event in question can support this. This allows users like BPF code to read the package perf events properly across different CPUs within a package.
