62245b8648 - Sparsely number enumerations 'pmc_cputype' and 'pmc_event' in order to 
reduce ABI disruptions when new cpu types and new PMC events are added
  in the future.
- Support alternate spellings for PMC events.  Derive the canonical
  spelling of an event name from its enumeration name in 'enum pmc_event'.
- Provide a way for users to disambiguate between identically named events
  supported by multiple classes of PMCs in a CPU.
- Change libpmc's machine-dependent event specifier parsing code to
  better support CPUs containing two or more classes of PMC resources.
