perf: Add driver for Arm NI-700 interconnect PMU
The Arm NI-700 Network-on-Chip Interconnect has a relatively
straightforward design with a hierarchy of voltage, power, and clock
domains, where each clock domain then contains a number of interface
units and a PMU which can monitor events thereon. As such, it begets a
relatively straightforward driver to interface those PMUs with perf.
Even more so than with arm-cmn, users will require detailed knowledge of
the wider system topology in order to meaningfully analyse anything,
since the interconnect itself cannot know what lies beyond the boundary
of each inscrutably-numbered interface. Given that, for now they are
also expected to refer to the NI-700 documentation for the relevant
event IDs to provide as well. An identifier is implemented so we can
come back and add jevents if anyone really wants to.
