  Do not assume which events may have a PMU name, allowing the logic to
keep an AUX event group together.

Example:

 Before:

    $ perf record --no-bpf-event -c 10 -e '{intel_pt//,tlb_flush.stlb_any/aux-sample-size=8192/pp}:u' -- sleep 0.1
    WARNING: events were regrouped to match PMUs
    Cannot add AUX area sampling to a group leader

 After:

    $ perf record --no-bpf-event -c 10 -e '{intel_pt//,tlb_flush.stlb_any/aux-sample-size=8192/pp}:u' -- sleep 0.1
    [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
    [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.078 MB perf.data ]
    $ perf script -F-dso,+addr | grep -C5 tlb_flush.stlb_any | head -11
