Support micro operation measurement on arm64

I dropped the version numbers, but this is v4 of Shih-Wei Li's series of the same name, last posted in January. I took the liberty of incorporating all the comments v3 had, plus making some other cleanup tweaks. These tests are too nice to let them slip away, let's get them reviewed and merged.

v3:
- add missing breaks in switch statement [Shih-Wei]
v2:
- add missing 'L' in 'UL' for PS_PER_SEC. There's a lot of picoseconds in a second!

Thanks,
drew

Here we provide the support for measuring various micro level operations on arm64. Measurements are currently obtained using timer counters. Further modifications in KVM will be required to support timestamping using cycle counters, as KVM now disables accesses to the PMU counters from the VM.
