perf stat: Fail softly on unsupported events
David Ahern reported this perf stat failure:
> # /tmp/build-perf/perf stat -- sleep 1
> Error: stalled-cycles-frontend event is not supported.
> Fatal: Not all events could be opened.
>
> This is a Dell R410 with an E5620 processor.
Fail in a softer fashion on unknown/unsupported events.
