[PATCH 06/17] tools/arch/x86/pmtctl: Add libpmtctl built-in metric provider

["David E. Box" <david.e.box@linux.intel.com>]

Add a unified metric definition provider interface to libpmtctl_core,
giving callers a single entry point for loading PMT metric definitions
regardless of their source.

pmt_metrics_load() abstracts whether definitions come from a built-in
table or an external JSON file. When no path is provided, the built-in
definitions are loaded. When a path is provided, loading is delegated to
the JSON provider when built with HAVE_JANSSON, otherwise
PMTCTL_ERR_UNSUPPORTED is returned.

Provide a stub built-in definition table so the library can build and run
before platform-specific definitions are generated. In that case,
pmt_metrics_load() returns PMTCTL_ERR_NOMETRICS, allowing callers to
report a meaningful error.

Add the remaining build-system integration in a later patch to keep the
library split into logically separate changes.
