perf/x86: Use INST_RETIRED.TOTAL_CYCLES_PS for cycles:pp for Skylake

I added UOPS_RETIRED.ALL by mistake to the Skylake PEBS event list for
cycles:pp. But the event is not documented for Skylake, and has some
issues.

The recommended replacement for cycles:pp is to use
INST_RETIRED.ANY+pebs as a base, similar to what CPUs before Sandy
Bridge did. This new event is called INST_RETIRED.TOTAL_CYCLES_PS. The
event is not really new, but has been already used by perf before
Sandy Bridge for the original cycles:p

Note the SDM doesn't document that event either, but it's being
documented in the latest version of the event list on:

https://download.01.org/perfmon/SKL

This patch does:

- Remove UOPS_RETIRED.ALL from the Skylake PEBS event list

- Add INST_RETIRED.ANY to the Skylake PEBS event list, and an table entry to
allow cmask=16,inv=1 for cycles:pp

- We don't need an extra entry for the base INST_RETIRED event,
because it is already covered by the catch-all PEBS table entry.

- Switch Skylake to use the Core2 PEBS alias (which is
INST_RETIRED.TOTAL_CYCLES_PS)
