Precedence: bulk

The default config is computed during creation of the PMU and may do
things like scanning sysfs, when the PMU may just be used as part of
scanning. Change default_config to perf_event_attr_init_default, a
callback that is used when a default config needs initializing. This
avoids holding onto the memory for a perf_event_attr and copying.

On a tigerlake laptop running the pmu-scan benchmark:

Before:
Running 'internals/pmu-scan' benchmark:
Computing performance of sysfs PMU event scan for 100 times
  Average core PMU scanning took: 28.780 usec (+- 0.503 usec)
  Average PMU scanning took: 283.480 usec (+- 18.471 usec)
Number of openat syscalls: 30,227

After:
Running 'internals/pmu-scan' benchmark:
Computing performance of sysfs PMU event scan for 100 times
  Average core PMU scanning took: 27.880 usec (+- 0.169 usec)
  Average PMU scanning took: 245.260 usec (+- 15.758 usec)
Number of openat syscalls: 28,914

Over 3 runs it is a nearly 12% reduction in execution time and a 4.3%
of openat calls.
