[PATCH v1 1/1] perf test: make metric validation test return early when there is no metric supported on the test system

[weilin.wang@intel.com]

From: Weilin Wang <weilin.wang@intel.com>

Add a check to return the metric validation test early when perf list metric
does not output any metric. This would happen when NO_JEVENTS=1 is set or in a
system that there is no metric supported.
