This new benchmark finds the total time that is taken to open, mmap,
enable, disable, munmap, close an evlist (time taken for new,
create_maps, config, delete is not counted in).
The evlist can be configured as in perf-record using the
-a,-C,-e,-u,--per-thread,-t,-p options.
The events can be duplicated in the evlist to quickly test performance
with many events using the -n options.
Furthermore, also the number of iterations used to calculate the
statistics is customizable.

Examples:
- Open one dummy event system-wide:
$ sudo ./perf bench internals evlist-open-close
  Number of cpus:       4
  Number of threads:    1
  Number of events:     1 (4 fds)
  Number of iterations: 100
  Average open-close took: 613.870 usec (+- 32.852 usec)

- Open the group '{cs,cycles}' on CPU 0
$ sudo ./perf bench internals evlist-open-close -e '{cs,cycles}' -C 0
  Number of cpus:       1
  Number of threads:    1
  Number of events:     2 (2 fds)
  Number of iterations: 100
  Average open-close took: 8503.220 usec (+- 252.652 usec)

- Open 10 'cycles' events for user 0, calculate average over 100 runs
$ sudo ./perf bench internals evlist-open-close -e cycles -n 10 -u 0 -i 100
  Number of cpus:       4
  Number of threads:    328
  Number of events:     10 (13120 fds)
  Number of iterations: 100
  Average open-close took: 180043.140 usec (+- 2295.889 usec)
