perf evsel: Assign abbr name for the branch counter events
There could be several branch counter events. If perf tool output the result via the format "event name + a number", the line could be very long and hard to read. An abbreviation is introduced to replace the full event name in the display. The abbreviation starts from 'A' to 'Z9', which can support up to 286 events. The same abbreviation will be assigned if the same events are found in the evlist. The next patch will utilize the abbreviation name to show the branch counter events in the output.
