perf metric: Change divide by zero and !support events behavior
Division by zero causes expression parsing to fail and no metric to be generated. This can mean for short running benchmarks metrics are not shown. Change the behavior to make the value nan, which gets shown like: ''' $ perf stat -M TopdownL2 true Performance counter stats for 'true': 1,031,492 INST_RETIRED.ANY # nan % tma_fetch_bandwidth # nan % tma_heavy_operations # nan % tma_light_operations 29,304 CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.REF_XCLK # nan % tma_fetch_latency # nan % tma_branch_mispredicts # nan % tma_machine_clears # nan % tma_core_bound # nan % tma_memory_bound 2,658,319 IDQ_UOPS_NOT_DELIVERED.CORE 11,167 EXE_ACTIVITY.BOUND_ON_STORES 262,058 EXE_ACTIVITY.1_PORTS_UTIL <not counted> BR_MISP_RETIRED.ALL_BRANCHES (0.00%) <not counted> INT_MISC.RECOVERY_CYCLES_ANY (0.00%) <not counted> CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.ONE_THREAD_ACTIVE (0.00%) <not counted> CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.THREAD (0.00%) <not counted> UOPS_RETIRED.RETIRE_SLOTS (0.00%) <not counted> CYCLE_ACTIVITY.STALLS_MEM_ANY (0.00%) <not counted> UOPS_RETIRED.MACRO_FUSED (0.00%) <not counted> IDQ_UOPS_NOT_DELIVERED.CYCLES_0_UOPS_DELIV.CORE (0.00%) <not counted> EXE_ACTIVITY.2_PORTS_UTIL (0.00%) <not counted> CYCLE_ACTIVITY.STALLS_TOTAL (0.00%) <not counted> MACHINE_CLEARS.COUNT (0.00%) <not counted> UOPS_ISSUED.ANY (0.00%) 0.002864879 seconds time elapsed 0.003012000 seconds user 0.000000000 seconds sys ''' When events aren't supported a count of 0 can be confusing and make metrics look meaningful.
