perf test: Update sample filtering test

Now it can run the BPF filtering test with normal user if the BPF
objects are pinned by 'sudo perf record --setup-filter pin'.  Let's
update the test case to verify the behavior.  It'll skip the test if the
filter check is failed from a normal user, but it shows a message how to
set up the filters.

First, run the test as a normal user and it fails.

  $ perf test -vv filtering
   95: perf record sample filtering (by BPF) tests:
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 425677
  Checking BPF-filter privilege
  try 'sudo perf record --setup-filter pin' first.       <<<--- here
  bpf-filter test [Skipped permission]
  ---- end(-2) ----
   95: perf record sample filtering (by BPF) tests                     : Skip

According to the message, run the perf record command to pin the BPF
objects.

  $ sudo perf record --setup-filter pin

And re-run the test as a normal user.

  $ perf test -vv filtering
   95: perf record sample filtering (by BPF) tests:
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 424486
  Checking BPF-filter privilege
  Basic bpf-filter test
  Basic bpf-filter test [Success]
  Failing bpf-filter test
  Error: task-clock event does not have PERF_SAMPLE_CPU
  Failing bpf-filter test [Success]
  Group bpf-filter test
  Error: task-clock event does not have PERF_SAMPLE_CPU
  Error: task-clock event does not have PERF_SAMPLE_CODE_PAGE_SIZE
  Group bpf-filter test [Success]
  ---- end(0) ----
   95: perf record sample filtering (by BPF) tests                     : Ok
