perf parse-events: Avoid SEGV if PMU lookup fails for legacy cache terms
libfuzzer found the following command could SEGV:
$ perf stat -e cpu/L2,L2/ true
This is because the L2 term rewrites the perf_event_attr type to
PERF_TYPE_HW_CACHE which then fails the PMU lookup for the second
legacy cache term.
The new failure is consistent with repeated hardware terms:
$ perf stat -e cpu/L2,L2/ true
event syntax error: 'cpu/L2,L2/'
\___ Failed to find PMU for type 3
Initial error:
event syntax error: 'cpu/L2,L2/'
\___ Failed to find PMU for type 3
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events
Usage: perf stat [<options>] [<command>]
-e, --event <event> event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events
$ perf stat -e cpu/cycles,cycles/ true
event syntax error: 'cpu/cycles,cycles/'
\___ Failed to find PMU for type 0
Initial error:
event syntax error: 'cpu/cycles,cycles/'
\___ Failed to find PMU for type 0

Committer testing:
Before:
$ perf stat -e cpu/L2,L2/ true
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
$
After:
$ perf stat -e cpu/L2,L2/ true
event syntax error: 'cpu/L2,L2/'
\___ Failed to find PMU for type 3
