[PATCH V3] tools/perf: Fix the check for parameterized field in event term

[Athira Rajeev]

The format_alias() function in util/pmu.c has a check to
detect whether the event has parameterized field ( =? ).
The string alias->terms contains the event and if the event
has user configurable parameter, there will be presence of
sub string "=?" in the alias->terms.

Snippet of code:

 /* Paramemterized events have the parameters shown. */
       if (strstr(alias->terms, "=?")) {
               /* No parameters. */
               snprintf(buf, len, "%.*s/%s/", (int)pmu_name_len, pmu->name, alias->name);

if "strstr" contains the substring, it returns a pointer
and hence enters the above check which is not the expected
check. And hence "perf list" doesn't have the parameterized
fields in the result.

Fix this check to use:

if (!strstr(alias->terms, "=?")) {

With this change, perf list shows the events correctly with
the strings showing parameters.

Other changes in this patch:
- Replace snprintf with scnprintf in buffer offset calculations to
ensure the 'used' count will not exceed the "len"
- If a parameterized event uses a built-in perf keyword for its
parameter name (eg, config=?), the lexer parses it as a predefined
term token, which sets term->config to NULL. Add check to use
parse_events__term_type_str() if term->config is NULL

Changelog:
v2 -> v3:
After review from Sashiko, added below changes:
- Corrected commit message to say "strstr" which was previously
added as "str_ends_with".
- Updated snprintf with scnprintf in perf_pmu__for_each_event()
as well.
