In order to support usersapce access, an event must be mmapped. While
there's already mmap support for evlist, the usecase is a bit different
than the self monitoring with userspace access. So let's add a new
perf_evsel__mmap() function to mmap an evsel. This allows implementing
userspace access as a fastpath for perf_evsel__read().
The mmapped address is returned by perf_evsel__mmap() primarily for
users/tests to check if userspace access is enabled.
