op_name_from_perf_id() currently returns a local variable, which isn't
terribly productive. As we only handle a single PMU case for now, simply
allocate and free the string from the arch init/exit context and have
op_name_from_perf_id() hand back the cached string.
This also takes UTS_MACHINE in to account, given that we build for
multiple architectures.

The PMCAT location has conveniently moved on newer SH-X3 parts, special
case this for now with a note. This will probably want to be redone in a
less visually offensive way when/if more information becomes available.

This adds in preliminary support for the SH-4A performance counters.
Presently only the first 2 counters are supported, as these are the ones
of the most interest to the perf tool and end users. Counter chaining is
not presently handled, so these are simply implemented as 32-bit
counters.
This also establishes a perf event support framework for other hardware
counters, which the existing SH-4 oprofile code will migrate over to as
the SH-4A support evolves.
