perf auxtrace: Add four itrace options
This patch is to add four options to synthesize events which are described as below: 'f': synthesize first level cache events 'm': synthesize last level cache events 't': synthesize TLB events 'a': synthesize remote access events This four options will be used by ARM SPE as their first consumer.
