powerpc/perf: Fix power10 event alternatives

When scheduling a group of events, there are constraint checks done to
make sure all events can go in a group. Example, one of the criteria is
that events in a group cannot use the same PMC. But platform specific
PMU supports alternative event for some of the event codes. During
perf_event_open(), if any event group doesn't match constraint check
criteria, further lookup is done to find alternative event.

By current design, the array of alternatives events in PMU code is
expected to be sorted by column 0. This is because in
find_alternative() the return criteria is based on event code
comparison. ie. "event < ev_alt[i][0])". This optimisation is there
since find_alternative() can be called multiple times. In power10 PMU
code, the alternative event array is not sorted properly and hence there
is breakage in finding alternative event.

To work with existing logic, fix the alternative event array to be
sorted by column 0 for power10-pmu.c

Results:

In case where an alternative event is not chosen when we could, events
will be multiplexed. ie, time sliced where it could actually run
concurrently.

Example, in power10 PM_INST_CMPL_ALT(0x00002) has alternative event,
PM_INST_CMPL(0x500fa). Without the fix, if a group of events with PMC1
to PMC4 is used along with PM_INST_CMPL_ALT, it will be time sliced
since all programmable PMC's are consumed already. But with the fix,
when it picks alternative event on PMC5, all events will run
concurrently.

With the fix, since alternative event is chosen to run on PMC6, events
will be run concurrently.
