perf stat: Fix L2 Topdown metrics disappear for raw events
In perf/Documentation/perf-stat.txt, for "--td-level" the default "0" means the max level that the current hardware support. So we need initialize the stat_config.topdown_level to TOPDOWN_MAX_LEVEL when “--td-level=0” or no “--td-level” option. Otherwise, for the hardware with a max level is 2, the 2nd level metrics disappear for raw events in this case. The issue cannot be observed for the perf stat default or "--topdown" options. This commit fixes the raw events issue and removes the duplicated code for the perf stat default.
