Since Linux 6.14, Perf gained the ability to report SPE branch events
using the `brstack` format, which matches the layout of LBR/BRBE.
This patch reuses the existing LBR parsing logic to support SPE.
Example SPE brstack format:
```bash
perf script -i perf.data -F pid,brstack --itrace=bl
```
```
PID FROM / TO / PREDICTED
16984 0x72e342e5f4/0x72e36192d0/M/-/-/11/RET/-
16984 0x72e7b8b3b4/0x72e7b8b3b8/PN/-/-/11/COND/-
16984 0x72e7b92b48/0x72e7b92b4c/PN/-/-/8/COND/-
16984 0x72eacc6b7c/0x760cc94b00/P/-/-/9/RET/-
16984 0x72e3f210fc/0x72e3f21068/P/-/-/4//-
16984 0x72e39b8c5c/0x72e3627b24/P/-/-/4//-
16984 0x72e7b89d20/0x72e7b92bbc/P/-/-/4/RET/-
```
SPE brstack flags can be two characters long: `PN` or `MN`:
- `P` = predicted branch
- `M` = mispredicted branch
- `N` = optionally appears when the branch is NOT-TAKEN
- flag is relevant only to conditional branches
Example of usage with BOLT:
1. Capture SPE branch events:
```bash
perf record -e 'arm_spe_0/branch_filter=1/u' -- binary
```
2. Convert profile for BOLT:
```bash
perf2bolt -p perf.data -o perf.fdata --spe binary
```
3. Run BOLT Optimization:
```bash
llvm-bolt binary -o binary.bolted --data perf.fdata ...
```
A unit test verifies the parsing of the 'SPE brstack format'.
