Synthesize instruction events for every ARM SPE record.

Arm SPE implements a hardware-based sample period, and perf implements a
software-based one. Add a warning message to inform the user of this.

Changes since v2
  - Rebase patch on top of https://lore.kernel.org/r/20211201220855.1260688-1-namhyung@kernel.org
  - Don't error out when using unsupported sample period type.
  - Store instructions_sample_period into samples.
Changes since v1 [https://lore.kernel.org/all/20211117142833.226629-1-german.gomez@arm.com]
  - Generate events with "--itrace=i" instead of "--itrace=o".
  - Generate events with virt_addr, phys_addr, and data_src values.

Tested this patch with perf commands (record/report/mem) and looks good
