perf evsel: Auto allocate resources needed for some methods
While writing the first user of the routines created from the ad-hoc routines in the existing builtins I noticed that the resulting set of calls was too long, reduce it by doing some best effort allocations. Tools that need to operate on multiple threads and cpus should pre-allocate enough resources by explicitely calling the perf_evsel__alloc_{fd,counters} methods.
