perf: Add wakeup watermark control to the AUX area
When AUX area gets a certain amount of new data, we want to wake up userspace to collect it. This adds a new control to specify how much data will cause a wakeup. This is then passed down to pmu drivers via output handle's "wakeup" field, so that the driver can find the nearest point where it can generate an interrupt. We repurpose __reserved_2 in the event attribute for this, even though it was never checked to be zero before, aux_watermark will only matter for new AUX-aware code, so the old code should still be fine.
