perf jevents: Fix event code for events referencing std arch events
The event code for events referencing std arch events is incorrectly evaluated in json_events(). The issue is that je.event is evaluated properly from try_fixup(), but later NULLified from the real_event() call, as "event" may be NULL. Fix by setting "event" same je.event in try_fixup(). Also remove support for overwriting event code for events using std arch events, as it is not used.
