Add perf_pmus__scan_matching_wildcard that only reads sysfs for pmus
that could wildcard match. For example, if searching for the event
'inst_retired.any/period=1000000/' first 'inst_retired.any' will try
to be directly looked up as a PMU, then 'inst_retired.any' will try to
be wildcard matched against all PMUs, finally it is assumed
'inst_retired.any' is an event name and opened on all PMUs avoiding
reading PMUs that can't have such an event. However, before this patch
such a case would read all PMUs for the wildcard matching. Now if the
wildcard can't be a hwmon PMU wildcard, reading hwmon PMUs is
avoided. On my laptop this reduces 'perf stat -e inst_retired.any
true' from performing 253 openat system calls down to 234.
