perf_event: Add alignment-faults and emulation-faults software events
Add two more software events that are common to many cpus. Alignment faults: When a load or store is not aligned properly. Emulation faults: When an instruction is emulated in software. Both cause a very significant slowdown (100x or worse), so identifying and fixing them is very important.
