perf metric: Return early if no CPU PMU table exists

Previous behavior is to segfault if there is no CPU PMU table and a
metric is sought. To reproduce compile with NO_JEVENTS=1 then request a
metric, for example, "perf stat -M IPC true".

Committer testing:

Before:

  $ make -k NO_JEVENTS=1 BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1 O=/tmp/build/perf-urgent -C tools/perf install-bin
  $ perf stat -M IPC true
  Segmentation fault (core dumped)
  $

After:

  $ perf stat -M IPC true

   Usage: perf stat [<options>] [<command>]

      -M, --metrics <metric/metric group list>
                            monitor specified metrics or metric groups (separated by ,)
  $
