[PATCH 2/3] perf script perl: Removing event cache as it's no longer needed

[Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org>]

We don't need to maintain cache of 'struct event_format'
objects. Currently the 'struct perf_evsel' holds this
reference already.

Adding events_defined bitmap to keep track of defined events,
which is much cheaper than array of pointers.
