perf evsel: Add alternate_hw_config and use in evsel__match

There are cases where we want to match events like instructions and
cycles with legacy hardware values, in particular in stat-shadow's
hard coded metrics. An evsel's name isn't a good point of reference as
it gets altered, strstr would be too imprecise and re-parsing the
event from its name is silly. Instead, hold the legacy hardware event
name, determined during parsing, in the evsel for this matching case.

Inline evsel__match2 that is only used in builtin-diff.
