[PATCH v1] perf stat: Avoid merging/aggregating metric counts twice

[Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com>]

The added perf_stat_merge_counters combines uncore counters. When
metrics are enabled, the counts are merged into a metric_leader
via the stat-shadow saved_value logic. As the leader now is
passed an aggregated count, it leads to all counters being added
together twice and counts appearing approximately doubled in
metrics.

This change disables the saved_value merging of counts for evsels
that are merged. It is recommended that later changes remove the
saved_value entirely as the two layers of aggregation in the code
is confusing.
