Optimize the execution of the metric validation and metric listing shell
test suites:
1. `stat_metrics_values.sh`:
The Python metric validator runs the `perf bench futex hash` workload
for each validated metric relationship. Reduce the benchmark runtime
limit from `-r 2` (2 seconds) to `-r 1` (1 second). This cuts the
workload duration in half while still generating sufficient PMU events
to satisfy non-zero threshold metric validations.
2. `stat_all_metrics.sh`:
The metric checking test runs `perf stat` sequentially across all
433+ listed metrics. Change the default workload for system-wide runs
from `sleep 0.01` to `true`. This avoids the 10ms sleep delay on each
sequential metric invocation, saving over 4 seconds of total wall
time during full test suite runs.

The metrics value validation test requires system-wide recording (`-a`),
which can fail on systems without root permissions or where paranoid
levels restrict tracing. Add a check to skip the test if `-a` is not
supported.
Also fix false negatives during validation by updating parse error string
patterns and resolving issues in metric list generation.

On my alderlake I currently see for the "perf metrics value validation" test:
```
Total Test Count: 142
Passed Test Count: 139
[
Metric Relationship Error: The collected value of metric ['tma_fetch_latency', 'tma_fetch_bandwidth', 'tma_frontend_bound']
is [31.137028] in workload(s): ['perf bench futex hash -r 2 -s']
but expected value range is [tma_frontend_bound, tma_frontend_bound]
Relationship rule description: 'Sum of the level 2 children should equal level 1 parent',
Metric Relationship Error: The collected value of metric ['tma_memory_bound', 'tma_core_bound', 'tma_backend_bound']
is [6.564442] in workload(s): ['perf bench futex hash -r 2 -s']
but expected value range is [tma_backend_bound, tma_backend_bound]
Relationship rule description: 'Sum of the level 2 children should equal level 1 parent',
Metric Relationship Error: The collected value of metric ['tma_light_operations', 'tma_heavy_operations', 'tma_retiring']
is [57.806179] in workload(s): ['perf bench futex hash -r 2 -s']
but expected value range is [tma_retiring, tma_retiring]
Relationship rule description: 'Sum of the level 2 children should equal level 1 parent']
Metric validation return with erros. Please check metrics reported with errors.
```
I suspect it is due to two metrics for different CPU types being
enabled. Add a -cputype option to avoid this. The test still fails with:
```
Total Test Count: 115
Passed Test Count: 114
[
Wrong Metric Value Error: The collected value of metric ['tma_l2_hit_latency']
is [117.947088] in workload(s): ['perf bench futex hash -r 2 -s']
but expected value range is [0, 100]]
Metric validation return with errors. Please check metrics reported with errors.
```
which is a reproducible genuine error and likely requires a metric fix.

The original test report was too complicated to read with information
that not really useful. This new update simplify the report which should
largely improve the readibility.

Add metric value validation test to check if metric values are with in
correct value ranges. There are three types of tests included: 1)
positive-value test checks if all the metrics collected are non-negative;
2) single-value test checks if the list of metrics have values in given
value ranges; 3) relationship test checks if multiple metrics follow a
given relationship, e.g. memory_bandwidth_read + memory_bandwidth_write =
memory_bandwidth_total.
