This series contains a set of fixes, cleanups, and improvements in
target/i386 related to PMU, legacy PEBS, and MSR handling.

The patches are grouped into a single series for review convenience.
Smoe of them are not tightly coupled and can be reviewed and applied
individually.

Technically, the PEBS-related changes could be split into a separate
series.  However, they touch closely related PMU and MSR code paths,
and keeping them together here makes review easier and helps avoid
potential merge conflicts.

Patch series overview:
Patches 1–5: Miscellaneous PMU/MSR fixes and cleanups.
Patches 8–9: Refactoring in preparation for pebs-fmt support.
Patches 6–7, 10–11: Complete legacy PEBS support in QEMU.

Changes since v1:
- Add two new patches to clean up and refactor LBR format handling.
- Introduce a new pebs-fmt command-line option.
- Add a patch to avoid exposing PEBS capabilities when not enabled.
- Trivial fixes and cleanups.
