selftests/bpf: Use PERF_COUNT_HW_CPU_CYCLES event for get_branch_snapshot
perf_event with type=PERF_TYPE_RAW and config=0x1b00 turned out to be not reliable in ensuring LBR is active. Thus, test_progs:get_branch_snapshot is not reliable in some systems. Replace it with PERF_COUNT_HW_CPU_CYCLES event, which gives more consistent results.
