With the cycle time information between branches, stalls can be easily
observed. But it's difficult to explain what causes the long delay.

Add a new branch sample type to indicate whether include occurrences of
events in branch info. The information will be stored in the branch
stack extension space.

Changes since V1:
- Rename to PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_EVT_CNTRS
- Drop the event ID sample type
