perf top: populate PMU capabilities data in perf_env
Calling perf top with branch filters enabled on Intel CPU's with branch counters logging (A.K.A LBR event logging [1]) support results in a segfault. $ perf top -e '{cpu_core/cpu-cycles/,cpu_core/event=0xc6,umask=0x3,frontend=0x11,name=frontend_retired_dsb_miss/}' -j any,counter ...

A similar issue exists for homogeneous core systems which use the cpu_pmu_caps structure. Fix this by populating cpu_pmu_caps and pmu_caps structures with values from sysfs when calling perf top with branch stack sampling enabled.
