Commit 3e0bf9 ("perf pmu: Restore full PMU name wildcard support") adds
a test case "PMU cmdline match" that covers PMU name wildcard support
provided by function perf_pmu__match(). The test works with a wide
range of supported combinations of PMU name matching but omits the case
that if the perf_pmu__match() cannot match the PMU name to the wildcard,
it tries to match its alias. However, this variable is not set up,
causing the test case to fail when run with subprocesses or to segfault
if run as a single process.

Initialize the PMU alias to null for all tests of perf_pmu__match()
as this functionality is not being tested and the alias matching works
exactly the same as the matching of the PMU name.
