Change how affinities work with evlist__for_each_cpu. Move the
affinity code into the iterator to simplify setting it up. Detect when
affinities will and won't be profitable, for example a tool event and
a regular perf event (or read group) may face less delay from a single
IPI for the event read than from a call to sched_setaffinity. Add a
 --no-affinity flag to perf stat to allow affinities to be disabled.

v8: Rebase, due to minor conflict with:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20260203230733.1474840-1-ctshao@google.com/

v7: Revert "perf tool_pmu: More accurately set the cpus for tool
    events" that caused issues with user specified CPUs (Andres Freund
    <andres@anarazel.de>). Fix a null test is prepare_metric so that
    missing events can't trigger segfaults (Andres Freund). Make the
    CPU map propagation improve the CPU maps for tool events that only
    read on index 0, this allows later setting when
    evlist__create_maps is called with the correct user CPUs. Rebase
    previous non-merged affinity changes that hadn't been picked up
    yet.

v6: Drop merged tool event change. Move TPEBS fix into its own patch
    1st.
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20260108212652.768875-1-irogers@google.com/

v5: Drop merged changes. Move tool event reading to first
    patch. Change --no-affinity flag to --affinity/--no-affinity flag.

    On v5 there was discussion with Andi Kleen who points out that
    affinities will work better with real time priorities but using
    this requires privileges.

v4: Rebase. Add patch to reduce scope of walltime_nsec_stats now that
    the legacy metric code is no more. Minor tweak to the ru_stats
    clean up.
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20251113180517.44096-1-irogers@google.com/

v3: Add affinity clean ups and read tool events last.

v2: Fixed an aggregation index issue:
